Wow, has it really been that long? When I started this blog, my kids were 8, 6 and 3. Now they are 11, 9, and 6. Time sure does fly by! I haven’t really blogged here much because I didn’t think anyone was reading this page. But for some reason, I’ve been constantly drawn back […]
Thursday, January 1st, 2009A New Year – A Renewed Determination
Wow! Another year has come and gone. I can’t believe how quickly time is passing. We have one major goal for our family in 2009. Consistent Family Devotion We want to have a consistent time of Bible Study in our home with our children. Our older boys are pretty well versed in the stories in their children’s Bibles as we’ve […]

O Come All Ye Faithful What Child Is This O Little Town of Bethlehem Away in a Manger Silent Night Don’t you just love Christmas Carols! I could go on and on listing my favorite songs of this season. I love to hear these songs (all year round really). And I love to hear children […]
Thursday, November 27th, 2008It’s Thanksgiving….GEEZ!
We went to my sister’s house tonight for a little pre-Thanksgiving gathering and when we arrived there, guess what they were preparing to do??? They were putting up their Christmas tree!!! WHAT! Who are these people (if it’s you, I’m so sorry!) who put up their Christmas tree before Thanksgiving. One at a time people! […]
Saturday, October 25th, 2008Have I Become A Prude?
I took my sons to see High School Musical 3 last night and we had a blast! I loved the singing and the dancing. I found myself clapping after every musical selection. I did have one complaint. I think some of Gabriella’s dresses and skirts were too short. When she’d spin and dance they would […]
Monday, September 29th, 2008Fireproof – The Movie
Have you heard of this movie? If not, here’s the website www.fireproofthemovie.com. My husband and I went to see it today. What a powerful message. Our culture is so quick to say this isn’t working, so let’s give up. Or this marriage isn’t fun or fulfilling or what I thought it would be. Or I’ve changed and […]
Saturday, September 20th, 2008Yes Ma’am, Yes Sir
Bralon, my oldest son has received a lot of my attention lately. He’s in third grade now and he has tons of homework. We’ve been spending a lot of time together working on getting all this homework done. Plus, it’s so much fun to talk to him because he has such interesting things to say. His perspective on […]
Thursday, September 4th, 2008Let Me Pray, Let Me Pray!
That’s what my 3-year-old says everytime someone says it’s time to pray. It doesn’t matter where we are, home or church or how many people are around. And it’s always the same prayer. “Lord thank you for this day. Thank you for this food. In Jesus name. Amen.” Whether we are blessing our food or closing […]
Tuesday, August 26th, 2008Determined to Get Focused
I am determined to not let my busy schedule get in the way of leading my children to Christ!!! It’s so easy to put off devotion and prayer time. It’s so easy to send the kids to read their Bible on their own. It’s so easy to let the Children’s Ministry do all the work. […]
Wednesday, August 13th, 2008Don’t Quench the Spirit
Have you ever tried to explain this concept to your children? We have a little devotion book that we started and the lesson for today was from 1 Thess. 5:19 “Do not quench the Holy Spirt of God.” What was helpful was the boys were told to get dressed for the day and they were […]
