About me

  

Hello;

My name is Rita; I welcome you to my little corner of the internet. I am a daughter of the Most High; a wife; a mother; and a homemaker.

I believe in complimentarianism; which is  a theological view that men and women are created equal in dignity and value but have distinct, complementary roles in the home and church, with men typically taking on leadership roles. The complimentarian view emphasizes that our roles as men and women, while different, are equally important and contribute to a harmonious whole and thus reflecting the relationship between Christ and the church.

With this mindset, I get so much satisfaction and delight in carrying out the roles as a wife and a mother as illustrated and instructed in the bible. I work full-time outside the home but my heart is in the home. I believe a woman doesn't have to be stay-at-home mom/wife to be a homemaker. 

My goal as the homemaker is to create a simple, happy, peaceful, lived-in home which is functional, comfortable, and reflects our personalities and lifestyle as followers of Jesus Christ. I aim at creating a welcoming environment that prioritizes comfort and practicality over extravagance or perfection.

Join me as I share my experiences; thoughts; and opinions about; but not limited to faith; family; motherhood and homemaking.


Mrs. Kakumba.

THE SABBATH - The day of rest

Hello friends!  I greet you all! Happy August! If you're new here; welcome! I'm glad you stopped by! As you can tell from the title, I observed the sabbath day. No, I'm not a seventh day Adventist nor do I associate myself with any sabbatarian denomination. I'm a woman who was led by the Spirit of the most High to start observing it. Actually no one in my family observes it. Remember Romans 14:5-6  yeah! I don't impose. In this post I share with you how it all started for me. I started taking a sabbath rest in April 2021. Like most working moms, I was constantly tired, overwhelmed, overstimulated and exhausted. I was juggling working full-time; parenting my then toddler; and homemaking. I was working 6 days; Monday to Saturday; with Sundays off so I could go to church.  But when Sunday came around, I was so spent that I could hardly do anything let alone go anywhere. On Sundays, I made sure to wake up before my then my son woke up so I'd have some quiet time to ...

BREAK THE WORRYING CYCLE

As night fades, it's a new dawn to be thankful to God for life; and for another day He has allowed us to see. And yet many people wake up feeling worse than they went to bed! If this sounds like you, keeping reading... Do you know that having an exhausted mind can creep into you physical life? This is true if the last thing you do before bed is "meditating" upon your troubles and challenges. People who do this often wake up feeling tired like they've been doing manual labor in the corn fields. They wake up worried and anxious; starting off where they stopped before falling asleep.  To some people, this is a way of life. One wakes up and unknowingly begins gathering worrisome thoughts. Sadly this is common to many people; even those professing faith in the Christ! How do I know?  I was one of those people! Not once; not twice! Worrying had become part of my morning routine! Picture this: an ugly poisonous bug resting on the nightstand while you sleep. And immediately y...

HOW TO PLANT SHRUBS - DIY

Hello friends! I hope the good Lord is keeping you and your families well! In our home; we continue to count his blessings one by one; and we are thankful to God for every one of them! In this post, I continue to share with you my DIY landscaping projects. In June I started working on the small bed around the porch and I want to share with you the step-by-step progress. The project is quite tough, but when you pace yourself, it is doable! I did it, so can you. Follow these steps: Step 1.  Prepare the ground  Just like in the other projects, i started by digging out the extra digging. However,  at the first attempt the ground was so dry and hard! Even my African digging skills couldn't help me out. I had to water the ground every day for 3 days to soften work area. Again, I wheeled the dirt to the backyard. Step 2. Buy your plants  When the ground prep is complete, it is time to shop for your desired shrubs. Remember to make your choice according to your planting zone...
