Dionna Lee - Outnumbered by chaos

Hello There!


I'm Dionna Lee - Widow & mama to three crazy kids and three fir-babies.

From one chaos-surrounded mama to another, I see you!

For years, I pulled my hair out trying to figure it out - I always wondered why I couldn't "get it together" like the other moms - until I realized I was missing something.

Add in the past few years of loss and chaos, my head nearly spun off my body.

That's when it finally clicked! I found the missing link to ending the overwhelm and chaos, and the answer to finally having the peace I had been desperately searching for.

Hint: It' Jesus!

✨No gate-keeping here 😘

Now, if you're in a place where you feel like pulling your hair out daily, I'm here to assure you - you're not alone. Peace IS possible.

Come along as we create the peaceful life we've both been looking for!

While having the most fun possible - of course 😉

How is my oldest boy 15 already? 🥹 It’s bee How is my oldest boy 15 already? 🥹 

It’s been an amazing journey, love you son!!
There are times where we feel like we’re toiling There are times where we feel like we’re toiling in vain. 

We planted and day after day we water, feed, and till the ground. But it feels like it never changes.

You save a dollar here and a dollar there, and think it’s insignificant. But I promise you, it’s not. 

Everything you do matters. 

If you’re sitting on a bed of discouragement today, I’m just here to remind you to keep going.

Don’t sink deeper into the feelings that it’ll never get better. 

It will. 

One day you’re going to look up from the ground you’ve been tilling and see a beautiful, extravagant, gigantic tree that is healthy and flourishing because of how you nurtured it as a seedling. 

No matter what you’re going through, it’ll be ok.

I know how it feels to struggle as a single mother I know how it feels to struggle as a single mother. 
I know how it feels to do it all alone.

What I haven’t shared was that I was only married for 6 short months before my husband died. 

If you count it, all in all, I’ve been a single mother for nearly 14 years.

So, Mama, if you’ve been doing it alone too, I’m with you…. 

🙈The days are long…
🙉There’s no one to switch off with…
🙊No help with bedtime or dinner…
🙈Everything is on your shoulders…

AND 🙊on top of it all the world is getting expensive!!

That’s why I believe the Lord has called me to this place. To help other single moms just like me and you…

So, if you’re feeling:

🥀Disheartened from doing it alone...
🥀Stressed by the rising costs while your income stays the same...
🥀Exhausted from carrying the weight of the world...
🥀And feel like if that ONE string gets pulled, the entire thing is coming apart at the seam...

Just know, you’re not alone mama. Hang in there. I'm with you 💗

That's why I created a free Facebook community just for single moms. A place without judgment, where we can be honest about our struggles and know that our single mama sisters are standing by our side and walking this journey with us. 

If any of this 👆 sounds like you, click the link in my bio and join the Gracefully Solo Community, where we're doing it alone - together 💗💗💗 I can't wait to see you inside!

“I really want new headphones mom, but I bet we’re too broke for that, right?” - said my then 12 year old son. 

Obviously, I was shocked and mildly offended. 

1️⃣First of all, he had no idea what was or wasn’t in my back account.

2️⃣And second, why would he assume I was broke? 

I worked hard, made a decent wage, and gave my kids everything they needed and practically everything they wanted…

‼️What I didn’t realize was my kids were paying attention to what I was and WASN’T saying.

He saw my frugality as poverty because I wasn’t communicating with my children about our family’s financial priorities. 

I was simply giving them yes or no answers when they asked for something. 

So in his mind, yes meant we had money and no meant we didn’t. So the recent string of “no’s” he had heard, meant we were broke in his mind. 

What that taught me was 

✨kids need communication - they need to know what’s going on with your family AND your finances (within reason) because it models how to set priorities and communicate your needs

✨ kids need to be taught age appropriate financial literacy - as they get older and your build on the experiences and understanding you’ll slowly create responsible stewards who will be wise adults

✨it’s ok to NOT give them everything - That moment happened to be our 100th trip to the store that week 🙄 and as every parent knows it comes with an influx of “can I have’s”. And though it isn’t fun telling our kids no, they learn to delay gratification and appreciate what they have (while also avoiding impulse buying) 

If you’ve struggled to model healthy financial behaviors for your children, IT’S NOT TOO LATE
