Lay Us Low










Thank you PicMonkey for always making my pictures look beautiful. Thank you Christa Wells and Nicole Whitt for this deep and thoughtful prose that has me on my knees especially as I study Philippians with a dear friend. Thank you Jesus for molding us to be more like you....

Never Too Late for Friday Favs!

Yes, I know it's Sat. It's actually lateish Sat. evening. FridayFavs are actually supposed to be posted on Friday. Which is not today. Obviously. Oh, time management we have already decided you are one of my greatest foes. However, since the past couple of weeks have been, well pretty wonderful I thought I would share in more of the fun and favorite things we did together. These here are some of our Favs from when the laundry fairy (AKA Nana) was still in town.  Making sweet treats     And a Pinata And just for the record Pinatas are hard to make. It is a project that takes about a week. Not 2 or 3 days Unless you live in the South and can put it outside to dry in Oct.     Best. Dad. Ever.     Ironman. Meg (from Little Women). And a pirate, of course. I love them all. Well, the children dressed up as them anyway.     Yup. This here is the...

Desert Diorama: FridayFavs

This wispy thing called time flies by when you're having fun. Or not. Or when your kids are sick. And this week as flown by. For all those reasons and more. Though we I did sneak in a few special moments with one of my favourite little men.     We decided to take a morning (while sister nursed a sore throat by staying in bed, listening to Adventures in Odyssey and reading) to build a desert diorama. Like most things in our life, it was pretty much a mess to begin with.     But like my mom is forever saying, "Sometimes you gotta make a mess to make a thang better." Did you hear the Southern drawl??     And tada. Something to feel good about. It's actually a desert with an oasis. Pretty brilliant, I know. Ok, maybe not but good enough for this mess of a home. And this handsome boy, he smiled big.     Cause accomplishment always feels good. Even in the small th...

Raising Pretenders

Meandering the choppy waters of parenting a teen is new and confounding at times. It humbles and shakes up my days. It is also a blessing. Yes! I just said blessing and teen together. I had hoped and hoped and prayed that our teens would know that we are on their side, that we are not their advisory. It is such a scary, scary time in parenting isn't it? These children figure out they have brains of their own and they want to use them to do things like think and have their own opinion. It's so very hard to know when to push and when to let it slide. It might be more like parenting a toddler than we would like to admit most of the time. And yet, there is something very sweet here. I realize that this is not every ones experience. It will not be ours with every child. Of that I am almost certain. I'm not saying this to brag or put anyone else into what I like to call, "a fog of comparison." It is not some formula like a chemistry experiment so please, PLEASE d...
