This recipe is for those who have asked for it multiple times but have never received a response because I am in a season of short-term memory loss (it’s called, 3 Children Under 2 Syndrome). It’s so simple that you’ve probably figured it out by now. We just had it for dinner. It was so tasty (if I… Continue reading Dip-it Nachos
Target Tip
Here’s a little tip I just got from my friend C, the bloodhound of bargains. Target’s $1 bins are full of great supplemental school stuff right now. I just picked up tons of workbooks, flashcards, puzzles, pencils, etc. The girls spent most of the day working through some phonics review and giving each other A+… Continue reading Target Tip
The Church’s One Foundation
The church’s one foundation is Jesus Christ her Lord; she is his new creation by water and the Word. From heaven he came and sought her to be his holy bride; with his own blood he bought her, and for her life he died. Elect from every nation, yet one o’er all the earth; her… Continue reading The Church’s One Foundation
Keep Me from Falling
Week 2 of swimming lessons started off very well. I was a little nervous for Maggie who seemed to be regressing a bit. If you didn’t catch my facebook status last week it started with, “Yesterday I (literally) threw a screaming 4-year-old into the pool. ..” I was relieved to find that Mr. G – was the teacher… Continue reading Keep Me from Falling
5 Blessings from the Month of May
Since I’ve missed an entire month of blogging, I’ll just fill you in on 5 blessings from the month of May: 1) Highlight of the month was definitely our trip to Philadelphia (which may be the closest our girls will get to experiencing brotherly love). The city was impressive to be sure, at least what we… Continue reading 5 Blessings from the Month of May
Race Weekend
Life has been much too busy for my liking the last few weeks, hence no updates. Not even 20 minutes for a blog entry. But tonight, kids are in bed, Chris is out with the guys for a much needed break, and I’m in my pjs with a diet coke (caffeine free at this time of night). Ahhh… The feeling… Continue reading Race Weekend
I had to click…
I’m not generally tempted to click on the outlandish news headlines that pop up on my homepage, but this one was too much. I had to click it. Wow! (skip to min 1:09 if you’re pressed for time)
In Christ Alone
In Christ ALONE my hope is found. My hope is not found in money, in government, or education. Not in friends or family. Not in my legacy, my kids, or health. Not in my church, my husband, or MYSELF. He is my light, my strength, my song; this Cornerstone, this solid Ground, firm through the fiercest… Continue reading In Christ Alone
6 Years of Grace
I cannot believe that we have a 6-year-old! It’s easy to believe that Emily IS 6 (sometimes she acts more like she is 26); but it’s really nothing short of a miracle that we’ve made it this far. 6 years ago we brought her home from the hospital wondering how we were going to keep… Continue reading 6 Years of Grace
Reality
Take 3 When it comes to portrait photography, I’m a bit of a realist. Pictures should help us remember, not pretend. No pretending here. I think this might qualify for that fail blog website. Oh well, if I looked back 30 years from now and saw 5 perfectly dressed little girls all sitting still … Continue reading Reality
