Say Hello To The Month Of May
Here are this month’s prompts for May. My hope is that you find some great ideas that will enhance your creative writing ideas as well as focus your thinking on your inner thoughts.
And if you practice your writing skills on a regular basis you will find so many positive rewards from doing it.
The May writing prompts can aid your mental health and well-being as well as give you an insight into your self-awareness and help you grow.
The best way to begin using the May journal prompts is to either follow the list daily from 1 to 31 or to choose a question at random each day.

Springtime is when we see the weather improve, the clocks change so we have increased daylight, new life comes into the world, and new growth of flowers and plants.

Hi I’m Gem
I am a busy Christain wife & mama. I have been married for the last 15 years to my best friend. We have four wonderfully individual children together, 16, 14, and 4 (x2).
We have lived in two different countries, traveled halfway around the world with our children, and back again. Experiencing some unique cultures, languages, and people. I found God along the way too.
It’s now my mission to share that journey with you and help you in your journey with God, your family, and your kitchen too.
By giving you the tools and resources to help you grow closer to the Lord, understand your family more, and develop your skills in the kitchen.
Each of us has a god-given gift or talent that he created us with for His purpose.
And if this is your first time visiting Mama & The Word, put a heart in the comment box below so I can officially welcome you to the community.

Final Thoughts On May Journal Writing Prompts For Mama’s
I love springtime. It is a time for new beginnings, new life, and new growth. Spring always fills me with hope for the things to come.
For me, I enjoy seeing the lambs jumping in the fields and the golden heads of the daffodils as they spring from the ground and the birdsong seems to be louder than normal in the mornings somehow.
It is also a time for fun and family. The holidays give us time to rest, relax and spend time with our loved ones. We can begin to get busy enjoying the outdoors with walks on the beach or going into the woods.
We can experience all the new life that we see and experience around us. It is a time for reflection, thanks and
