- Today's video is a 4am productive mom morning routine of an online student and stay at home mom. In this grad school mom routine of a stay at home mom and online student, I show you how I get it all done- online school work & being a student mom, and all that is involved in my productive early morning routine. I hope this productive student mom morning routine inspires and encourages you that 4am isn't THAT scary!

As an online student and stay at home mom, there is definitely enough time in my day to do grad school work, but that would mean no time spent with my two boys. So, I get up early in the morning and have my grad school mom routine, so that the majority of my online school work is done in the mornings during this productive mom morning routine. I think it is important to have a grad school mom routine if I am going to get most, if not all my grad school work done in the AM. THUS, a 4am morning routine. I love being a mom in seminary, but if I am not careful, I can easily loose track & forget what's important- my boys. That's why I am extremely thoughtful about the ways I spend my early morning routine. As an online student and stay at home mom, I need to live by check lists and my planner to make sure my morning routine is a PRODUCTIVE morning routine. As as a christian mom, I KNOW I need to seize the day!
But, that doesn't mean I'm a workaholic! In my 4am morning routine I make sure there's time for me to take care of myself! I show you how I, as a Christian mom, get that time with Jesus in my christian mom morning routine. I also noticed that so many stay at home mom morning routines do not feed the soul & so I really try to emphasize that I need to start my mornings w/ Jesus. Also, it's important to note that as a christian mom & as a mom in seminary, it can be easy to get tired of all this bible related stuff, so I make sure I am enjoying & glorifying & worshiping Him FIRST before I start my student mom morning routine!
What kind of morning routine do you have as a student mom? I really would love to hear about your christian mom morning routine or your grad school mom routine!
In this morning routine of a student mom video, I pray you are encouraged that your morning routine doesn't have to be this real elaborate thing. To be a productive mom with a productive morning routine 2020, all you need is the time that you get when you wake up for a early morning mom routine! So this morning routines 2020 online school edition is focused around staying awake & staying productive, because for me that's the key to a productive morning routine; just giving yourself that time & making sure you stay productive!
Once the boys wake up my productive morning routine goes kind of wack b/c I have 2 kids two & under it's just crazy. Typically, I'll let them eat breakfast in their highchairs & we'll sing songs & giggle while I finish online grad school. I guess that's another tip of a online student and stay at home mom, to use eating time as productive mom time. But typically my true 4am productive mom morning routine ends when they wake up. I guess what I am trying to say is it is okay if your sahm routine isn't perfectly ROUTINE.
If you are new here consider subscribing to how to faith a life & check out my other christian mom videos. I am a christian mom & grad student mom in seminary. I love making all kinds of bible study videos & I would love to have you subscribe if that's the kind of christian mom videos that you'd like!
God, use this grad school mom routine to bless a discouraged christian mom out there that she can make a productive mom morning routine! Or a discouraged mom in seminary. I pray when they see this 4am morning routine that they are encouraged if they are also a grad student mom. In this productive morning routine 2020 may someone see that if they want to be a mom in seminary, they can be. Encourage a christian mom to go to school through my grad school mom routine. I guess what I am praying is may this 4am mom morning routine bring You glory and honor You, Jesus! When people hear that I am a mom in seminary, don't let them get the wrong idea, that I am not 'holier than thou' but just like any other student mom grad student. May they be encouraged whether they have a 6am productive mom morning routine or a 4am mom morning routine. It's not about the time of day, it's about using a early morning routine to change the day into a productive mom morning routine if you're a grad student or if you're a stay at home mom. Father, use this early morning routine to encourage and motivate other christian moms that they can make productive morning routines for Your glory to better serve their families and homes! May not anyone be intimidated by this christian mom productive morning routine, but encouraged. If someone is looking up christian mom morning routines, may they find this productive morning routine & be inspired!
As a haard-working mother of two (2) active kids, and an online study mom who try to keep God in the center of my life, this motivated me so much.
So glad I found you ♥️ definitely felt inspired to jump back into school. I’m finishing up my degree and wondered how I was going to do it with just one child (I know not the same as two 😂). However, you really inspired me to see waking up early as “me time” especially with the Lord. Thanks from the bottom of my heart! Look forward to seeing more of your videos ☺️
I'm so glad! Yes, it's do-able, but it's definitely the hardest thing I have ever done!
Girl !!! May God continue to give you the strength and guidance. This was very encouraging , thank you ! thank you for allowing God to use you for his glory. God bless you sister💜
I can relate to you on a lot of levels!! My husband was a pastor for the past 5 years (so I totally get the pastor's wife being a part-time job!). He just finished seminary, so I know how tough that journey is too. Way to go :)
I'm just starting another degree myself, and I've been wanting to get up early before our 3 kiddos are up to get things done early, rather than late. I've always been a night owl, so it's a tough transition for me. I'm shooting for 6 am to get started and then move earlier as I acclimate!
That's awesome! Yeah, I've never been a night owl, so getting up earlier comes easier to me than staying up late! I don't know how you night owls do it! ;)
This video made me so happy to watch. Grad school starts for me in 2 weeks and I’m a SAHM as well and I’ve been so overwhelmed and worried about how to get that alone time to refresh with God AND be a present mom. I’ve been looking at it all wrong, that early rising is for us ALL to be better as a family. Such a challenge at this time being that my baby isn’t sleeping all night yet. But that’s ok. Gonna do it anyway!
BEAST MODE!!!!!!!
Thank you. This was so helpful. 💛🌞
You're so welcome!
I absolutely loved your video! We have a similar morning routine (I have a blended family of 9) and used to cloth as well! Thank you for sharing, I feel very inspired again! (:
Yay! I am so glad! That is music to my ears that I could inspire and encourage you!
I have to leave for school around 7:20 so I wake up at 5:00-5:30 am I give my self to 6:00 to do my quiet time, then while I get myself ready I love to listen to the Just thinking podcast by Darrell Harrison one of my pastors he’s a man of many words lol 😂. When I charge my phone I put it next to my Bible so when my alarm goes off I’m reminded to read my Bible and not go on my phone I know it’s weird, but it works best because if it’s on my dresser I won’t have to get up to turn it off so I’ll go back to sleep then I’ll be late for school.
We just started playing with watercolors around here lol. Loving it!
Ava Lewis YES!!!! Yay! 🙌🏻 it really is so relaxing!
I so needed this❤️
So glad I could provide some type of motivation or encouragement!
@@HowtoFaithALife the fact that you are so bucked up with school being a wife and mom wow im truly amazes! I appreciate you pushing out so much content to help others ! This inspiration you gave me will hopefully push me to do the same. Much love your sister in Christ
Hi Faith. Thank you for sharing with us your daily life. God is so good. He provides a way for us even when it may be difficult. The reward is great
Amen! That's so true! And to God be the glory!
Well said!!
That is amazing! I struggle to get up early, probably because I don't really plan out anything to do in the mornings. I need to start making a list or something for the morning because im WAY too tired when I get home from work to do much more than cook dinner and do the dishes 😅 #pregnantmomstruggles you're doing a great job!
Chanda Elizabeth oh yeah, pregnancy exhaustion always made me SO LAZY in the evenings! I am just a morning person. I’d rather get up at 1am than stay up till 1am!
@@HowtoFaithALife same!
Thanks for the inspiratio, God truly led me to this video because ive been slacking alot and i hate it. I wamt to have spme Me-time with JEsus forst thing in the morning but i end up waking up when my oldest wakes up. I will wake up at 4am tomorrow and let you know how it went. New subscriber!💕
You don't have to wake up at 4am like me, even just 5 minutes earlier makes a difference in my life!
Nice video
I'm taking notes
So inspired by this, especially having Faith in Christ, am so inspired.
Girl you’re an inspiration. Do you use watercolor paint for your bible journaling? 🤗💕 i usually do my bible time before bed but I think getting up early would help me get more done. I’m inspired. Yes! It’s a beautiful day🤗
I do! They are just cheap dollar tree water color paints, but I love how much prettier it makes my bible journaling!
How to Faith A Life it’s so pretty! I love it! I’ll have to pick some up, thanks for the tip 💕💜
Kaycee Peterson I’ve never tried water color painting with my Bible Journaling but you girls got me over here like...maybe I need to :) lol
Staying Kingdom Minded haha I haven’t tried water color yet but I do have colored pencils! It’s so fun and relaxing 🤗💕the watercolor is just so gorgeous 😍
Kaycee Peterson yes I love Faiths! I am definitely going to give it a try, do you use a regular Bible to do your journaling in or a special bible for journaling?
Okay, I literally thought I was the only who put peanut butter in my oatmeal! Lol thank you for proving I’m not the only one! 😂
Lol OH YES! We are obsessed with peanut butter in this household! I literally had cereal and peanut butter for dinner tonight 🤣 my favorite peanut butter is the Jif reduced fat one because it’s got an amazing grainy texture!
❤
Thank you for this video! Very inspiring.. I’m wondering at what time do you go to sleep to be able to wake up at 4am and do all the mommy duties etc?
Your oldest looks like ur husband sooooo much!!!! Looks like ur crushin’ it!! Your doing great momma!!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌
Staying Kingdom Minded thank you Amanda! Hope Able has been feeling better! Been praying!
How to Faith A Life he weennttttt :-) thank you so much!
THANKS!!
JOSEPH WOMACK lol Yw :-)
I am also a Ph.D student with two kids. I also wake up at 4am.
Woah! Yeah, it’s hard to make it work without that extra time! Any tips?
@@HowtoFaithALife In addition to waking up early to utilize the quiet time as much as possible, I also try to make everything as consistent (routine) as possible, which saves me little bit of time here and there. And, I also make sure to spare 30 min. everyday to exercise. During the weekdays, I do bare minimum to maintain the house. On Saturdays, we usually attend birthday parties, social events, or fun family time. On Sundays, I do all the house chores and prepare for the week.
@@julieyoung-jooyi322 I totally agree- working out daily can be a game changer for my mind, body and motivation! I’m a lot more productive after I workout!
But yes, block time is necessary!
Something someone recently told me that was incredibly freeing was, “you have two kids, your house isn’t supposed to be clean!” And that was super helpful to hear that I didn’t have to live up to that Pinterest/Instagram perfect-house- idea that I had in my head!
I wake up after my kiddo 😅 cause last two years had been sleepless and insomniac ahahahaha
Most of the time I get up at 2:30 AM with my husband so he can go to work and I stay up all day with no nap lol
How do u go running with them? Strap them on?
Hey! New subscriber! So glad I found you!! Great content! I appreciate our Momma Community here on TH-cam! 💕
Hey! Thanks for stopping by! :) I agree- this community is extra special!
Hi. Do you take nap in the noon ? Or eve ?
What time do you go to sleep
I am a student with 5 kids, one is disabled and recently started having seizures. I have lost my routine because of this. I think, in the future, I am gonna take the 16-week classes. The 8-week classes are just too conde when you are going through a hard season.
You are indeed a strong Mum. The Good Lord Jesus Christ will surely level all high mountains for you. All things are doable by the grace of God Sis. All the best.
Curious what time you go to bed to get up at 4 am? Do you take a nap mid day when you feel sleepy?
I will say: this was only for a season! But I went to bed around 10/11pm and then would wake up at 4. Eventually it turned into a bedtime at 12. Definitely wasn’t sustainable, but it got me through a good, but demanding season. I made a video about moving out of that season which you can find here: th-cam.com/video/_k11SO2Ixg0/w-d-xo.html
Hey, i am a mother of 3 and planning to move to USA as an international student. Will I be able to manage everything as a single mom. What courses should I take to study online as postgraduate degree
I was getting up at 5, but I’ve been slacking lately. I’m inspired to get back to it! Also, what bible are you using in this video?
Kassandra Waltenburg it’s my new ESV Bible journaling bible!
It's the interleaved bible by Crossway!
I found not putting makeup on just doesn’t give me a spark lol I don’t know why and feel borderline pathetic but it helps~
Lol I can relate!
Inspiring :) What time do you sleep?
Usually I am for 10pm but typically it's 11! I thrive off of the 5-6 hrs of sleep a day. More or less than that and I am groggy.
📓 Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I just started attending school. I am focused on being positive and focused. I am a mother of 4 children. My youngest is two years old. This video gave me more motivation. Mothers need time to ourselves to prepared for the day. I have the same routine as well. I get asked how do I maintain and your video explains it all. Be prepared Be Productive. Thank you 📓💛😌
You are so welcome!
So what time to you go to bed?? 🙃
Good question! Like 10/11!
