Mornings can be chaos central—especially when you’re trying to get kids fueled and out the door. Some days, I don’t have time to whip up scrambled eggs and toast, but I still want to give my kids something better than “just” cereal. That’s when our trusty invention comes in: The Peanut Butter Bomb.
I’m no chef (more like the Gordon Ramsay of PB&J’s 😆), but I’m serious about fueling my kids’ bodies the right way. And this little bowl packs a punch.
Here’s how it works:
1. Start with organic Field Day Whole Grain Toasted O’s (a great, healthy carb).
2. Stir in a dollop of natural peanut butter (protein + healthy fats).
3. Sprinkle in a seed mix (flax, chia, hemp—good for heart, digestion, bones).
4. Add a shake of cinnamon (anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting).
5. Top with raisins for natural sweetness and extra fiber.
6. Pour in some whole milk—yes, whole milk. God knew what He was doing when He created milk in its natural form. The fat helps our bodies absorb essential vitamins and minerals.
In under two minutes, you’ve got a balanced breakfast that fuels growing bodies with the right carbs, protein, and fats—and keeps them full longer than cereal alone ever could.
Lucy and Anderson love it (we’ve got the double thumbs-up pictures to prove it too😄), and I love knowing I’ve filled their tanks with good things before sending them out to conquer their day.
Sometimes the simplest inventions become the best family staples.
Hi, I’m Lindsey—wife, homeschooling mom, animal lover, and cappuccino enthusiast with a heart full of stories and a deep love for teaching and learning.

I started Raising Light to share our journey of parenting with purpose.
As a former teacher, wildlife rehabilitator, Realtor, and dog trainer turned full-time mom, I’ve walked an unexpected and beautiful path that led me to home education and a deeper faith.

My daughter, Lucy, is the light of my life—and the inspiration behind this blog.
Her name literally means “light,” and I believe that every child carries their own unique glow. I don’t believe she’s “gifted”—I believe she’s growing and glowing because she’s loved, encouraged, and supported.
And I believe your child can thrive in the same way.

I know what it’s like to struggle with learning.
I grew up with dyslexia, diagnosed in second grade, and for years I felt like I just couldn’t measure up.
But through grit, grace, and one remarkable professor who finally saw me—I not only overcame it, but became a passionate educator.
Now I use that experience to help guide my daughter, and hopefully, other parents too.
⸻
This space is where I share our learning journey, parenting reflections, spiritual walk, and the tools and truths that have made all the difference.
My prayer is that Raising Light will encourage you, equip you, and remind you that you’re not alone.

We’re not here to be perfect.
We’re here to grow—and let our light shine.

Welcome to our story. I’m so glad you’re here.
With love,
Lindsey
