Prayer for Contentment

Isn’t it always the struggle to encourage contentment and not to covet or want what others have? Especially in this season of gift giving and receiving. Our family has decided to not give gifts to the kids but instead to do acts of service. We have an “advent calendar” that hangs in envelopes and labeledContinue reading “Prayer for Contentment”

Remember All God Has Done

Light and Truth

My children love to sing the song, This Little Light of Mine, as they sing I get such joy hearing them sing! However, since they are young they don’t realize the message of the song.

Pregnancy Announcements

Memory lane continues: I have had the opportunity to announce that Darren and I are expecting 4 times! Here is how we did it. Baby #1: We hosted a family dinner and their “appetizer” was in a little Chinese take out box on their plates.
