What We’re Reading {Easter Edition}
A friend stopped me in the hallway at church last Sunday and said, “I remember you talking about getting your boys the book, “The Three Trees” for Easter last year. What other books did you buy them?” And here we go. The next holiday is coming, just as I tossed my son’s valentine’s cookies in the trash today (yes, he had been saving them). After two ...

The Words that Carried Me in 2012
Today ends a year I previously dreaded. Last New Year’s Eve I worried about my future sleepless nights, caring for 4 young boys, and losing more of my freedom. Little did I know my year would also include a home robbery, colicky newborn, ER visits (crutches for me, concussion for Price), ...

Thanks for your very generous words. God bless you this Mother’s Day.
Oh Sally, if you only truly understood the impact you’ve made on my mothering. To think your books & teaching are helping me raise 4 godly men and I’m only ONE of the many, many moms impacted by your life work? God bless you friend. Particularly on Mother’s day…a day I feel like you especially should get extra special recognition for helping moms around the world stand tall knowing they are worthy to receive praise! Blessings.
Love this, Heather!
Happy Mother’s Day to you!
{HUGs} Love Ya!
thanks susie for being a constant encouragement to me. Have a great weekend!
Interesting that you should post this… Believe it or not, the Lord put this very thought in my mind yesterday and I had already planned on doing this with my two boys! I’d never before considered it. I came across this post on pinterest this morning. What beautiful Providence! Thanks for the ideas!!
God is in the details. Thank you for taking the time to share this with me…truly. Let me know how it goes!
This is great! Sounds like a great way to have everyone connect.
I love this idea! My husband is a tea drinker (i’m a coffee girl myself
) so i know he will really appreciate this idea.
thanks sandy! Sometimes hot chocolate replaces the tea for the boys, and I drink coffee.
Oh I just LOVE this idea! Def going to try this! Thank you!
