Meet the Fam
Thank you so much for visiting us at Home with the Boys!
I am Erin – a follower of Jesus Christ, wife of a med student and stay-at-home mom to two lively young boys. The hubby and I have been blissfully married for eight years. Big J is five and Little J is three. I’m learning quickly about the world of boys! We have another little one on the way, due around February 28, 2012!
In my “former” life, I taught elementary music, but now I enjoy cooking, crafting, reading, coffee with friends, date nights and keeping up on the TV shows we love! Give us some good weather and you may find us on the tennis court or golf course as well, although that can be hit-or-miss in Nebraska!
I am also the co-founder and creator of the M.O.B. Society – for moms of boys by moms of boys – which is a huge blessing and encouragement to ME!
This fall, we entered the world of homeschool – not something we ever planned on, but we are excited for the journey!
You can also find me writing for The Homeschool Village and as a Tommy Mommy on the Tommy Nelson blog!
I hope you find our blog to be a place of faith, family, fun and encouragement!
Blessings,
Erin

Erin, I have SO loved the MOB Society! It is refreshing to know that my crazy life with 2 sons, is no different than others with boys. That my prayers and worries and triumphs and crazy incidents are normal.
I am always encouraged when I leave your personal blog, too!!
xoxo.

I don’t have any kids, but I’m auntie to two of the greatest little boys in the universe. They live halfway around the globe most of the time, but they’re here now for a few months I feel like the luckiest girl in the world.
I love what you do with the MOB Society!

That pic is so cute. I’ll be down your way for a concert at Grace U with Midwest for Christ in Aug. I’ve really enjoyed MOB Society – awesome idea & wonderfully executed. I have two spirited guys 7 & 5 (and 11yo daughter).

I love a blog that includes lots and lots of resources . . . and that is exactly what yours is!
I’m looking forward to reading your stories, clicking around to see what you recommend and heading over to Gather Inspirit to see what that is all about.
Sorry, but I won’t be clicking on M.O.B. since I’m a die-hard M.O.G.’s!

As the mom to two little boys, 3, 20 months, and one due in five weeks, what a relief it is to find a place where the mommies are so positive about raising boys!! My husband and I plan to have more babies and expect that they will likely be boys as well…people think we’re nuts but somebody’s got to raise godly boys into godly men! Thanks for not being girl-crazy like the rest of the world seems to be!

Thanks for all you do! I have 5 young boys and am so thankful I stumbled upon the MOB Society. It fills a very needed niche. May our men change the world for Christ someday!

Found you through Raising Real Men. I also have two boys, 6 & 2. I would love to homeschool them, but am respecting my husband’s desire to have them in public school. Maybe someday…
