Grace Playing House
I just found this humorous post from 2007! Oh, these are the reasons we blog! To record every funny and embarrassing moment of our children. 2007 Grace (4 1/2) got a new Belle and baby Belle doll today and while playing I heard this: Grace as the Prince: Okay, Ariel and Belle. I will choose…
Pressure and Time
And we, who with unveiled faces all reflet the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. 2 Corinthians 3:18 NIV Have you ever stopped to consider how our lives as Christians are comparable to the life of a diamond? It…
Tuna and Soybean Sandwich???
Never heard of it? Don’t want to try it? Well, neither did I until I read my tuna label. Allergy Warning: Tuna and SOYBEANS! (Duh! It is a can of tuna!) I must admit I thought they mashed up soybeans in my tuna until I started typing this email and realized that the soybeans were…
A Life Update…
Life has been busy. We leave for vacation tomorrow to Orlando and I’ve been busy all month (yes, it’s only 8 days) packing. Not only for our trip to ICRS (and a family vacation) but we started packing up our home. After thinking, wanting, begging my husband to move, he (all or a sudden) found…
Confession Time
I guess those of you who read regularly have noticed my Sunday and Wordful Wednesday post have been lacking. Mainly because I’ve been lacking a Word for the Lord, mainly because I haven’t spent quality time listening. Sure I pray daily, read my Bible, though not everyday, and only listen to Christian music, but as…
Strawberries…Umm, Umm, Good!
“Chawcherries!” That’s what Grace called strawberries when she was two. She loved strawberries soooo much I decided her birthday theme would be “Strawberry Shortcake.” Aside from the fun Strawberry Shortcake decorations and cake, we made giant papermache strawberries (which I still have up in the attic) and went on a hunt for strawberries! And of…
Love Starts with Elle by Rachel Hauck
I have to admit this is one of those books I picked up just because of the title. I’m looking forward to the fun read…maybe on my long drive to Orlando! :0 This week, the Christian Fiction Blog Alliance is introducing Love Starts With Elle (Thomas Nelson – July 8, 2008) by Rachel HauckABOUT…
Hiding Mariposa
Grace has been asking for the Barbie Mariposa video ever since it started being advertising on television. In fact, she’s been asking for EVERTHING she’s seem advertised on TV. I usually say. Maybe for your birthday, and that usually quits her down. But there’s something about his Mariposa video that keeps her asking. I think…
Tell-a-Marketer
Come and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me. Psalm 66:16 NIV Brrrriiiiinnngggg! The shrill of the phone interrupts the race across the keyboard as my fingers pour out thoughts. “Hello,” I say in my nicest “you’ve-just-messed-up-my-thought-process” voice. “Mrs., umm- Hatcher?” A telemarketer. I know…
Summer Safety Tips
I just discovered a GREAT new website. Mommy Docs was started by two mom doctors who have more in common than their medical degree. I can tell from their website they’re all about informing and helping moms raise healthy kids. They have a great Q & A page, and a page where you can ask…
