Isn’t is sad the thing we can overlook. I love to see new things through my children’s eyes. Just the other day there was a beautiful fog among the trees on the hill that I wouldn’t have even seen if it wasn’t for my daughter pointing it out.

Kids can do more than we THINK
I am amaze at myself how I can hold my kids back. They are so much more capable of things then I think. While my husband and I had talked about what kinds of responsibilities we wanted our kiddos to help with in the house, I recall saying many times, “Is she old enough toContinue reading “Kids can do more than we THINK”

Prayer – Children Would Turn to Prayer
We try to be a family of prayer. When we go to bed we try to have a prayer with each kid. During each meal we try to have a family prayer of thankfulness. If a member of the family is in need, sick, or has a big life change we try to take timeContinue reading “Prayer – Children Would Turn to Prayer”
