Jenn Doing My Best is a daily blog about life over 40—homemaking, homeschooling, simple living, and life reflections.
Hi, I’m Jennifer—a 45-year-old introvert, wife to a bearded dude who tells the corniest jokes, and homeschooling mama to six amazing kids.
I’m just doing my best out here in this chaotic world 😱😂—trying to navigate my 40s and busy, big family life with grace, humor, and faith.

What This Blog is About (and not about!)
On my blog, I document my days through simple photography and storytelling, capturing the quiet beauty in our ordinary moments.
This blog isn’t a mom blog — though once upon time I spent years in that world, and even ran my own city blog for about eight years.
These days, I’m coming back to blogging simply for the joy of it. 😊 This space is a daily blend of thoughts, snapshots, and little moments from my life.

Hobbies & Interests
In my free time, I enjoy street photography, reading, gardening, crafting, jewelry making, thrift and vintage shopping, listening to jazz/folk/classical music, and quiet moments in my cozy, little house with a good cup of tea.

I’m incredibly thankful for this beautiful (sometimes crazy 🤪) life God has blessed me with… because it truly is a blessing, even the messy parts.
Thanks for stopping by and spending a little time here!
