I can't believe how long G's hair has gotten! She's getting so big!

They are lucky to have you as a momma!

What a day, how sweet of G to remind you of God's promises. I hear ya on being scared but having to be brave for your babies. ie: our first trip to the ER last week. So glad they are better!

I'd love to have you.

Thanks to everyone who took the survey. The results plus a talk with Tim have helped me steer the blog a little. Not big changes, necessarily, but helpful ones.

Oh honey, I am so with you! I also hear that *annoying* voice :) I am also trying to enjoy these days and feel truly thankful for them. Which I think we both are thankful for them, it's just hard right in the moment!

Goodness, yes. So hard to keep up with a toddler when you're pregnant. I remember those days. My prayers are with you, especially in these last few months.

Definitely will exchange prayer. :) Ella has been into the entertainment center at least 50 times this morning. I finally realized there's no reason to sit this pregnant bootie down....just stay next to her on the floor so I can move her when she heads for it again. haha.

I loved this opening! I had the same thing happen to me earlier but you described it much more eloquently.

2012-04-16T13:15:05.450-04:00

simply lovely!

i can't tell you how many posts i've lost due to similar reasons.

love how the Lord redirected your focus towards the very things you had been writing about.

loved the image of the trees "clapping!" so true!

blessings!

A lot of useful information in those links, thanks. I feel that it might even be too much for me to “digest” in just one week.

I am praying for you guys as you work through this, and so grateful that you are sharing. Headed upstairs now to share day 1 with Kaylee. Love you, my Friend.

2012-03-27T14:48:18.183-04:00

Whoops! Had my weeks mixed up. This is not passion week; however, the story is applicable for day 1 of passion week, setting the stage for Christ's death.

Good job with the girls! I think the story was great! What fun times hanging out with the girls!

2012-03-26T14:25:57.791-04:00

O my, my eyes welled up when I read that very last line of your blog. It is proof that the storytelling is doing its work already in your daughter's heart.

Isaac loves hand motions so I can't wait to try this with him!

2012-03-24T18:28:48.727-04:00

Thanks for the catch. I read that story so many times and still messed up the days:). I'll fix that. Also, I like the addition of "very good." This is why I asked for help!

2012-03-23T22:21:43.768-04:00

I like it! I think the verbal repetition is good and so are the hand signals. No church language that I noticed. The only thing I noticed is vegetation was on the third day with land and seas. Day six is just animals. Is it too much detail for kids to put in something about God saying in the sixth day that all he made was very good? Also, i like how you described Adam and Eve. Its simple but you know they're different from the rest of creation. I'm glad you're writing these! I want to use them in my preschool class.

Oh my word, I am about speechless! What a trip and a story!! I am sure being home feels better then ever!!

Love that last sentence! So true, and easy to forget even when there's just the two of us.

2012-03-08T17:12:54.885-05:00

that's awesome! i'd love if you wrote some stories-- they'd be perfect for me to teach my preschool class!

Thanks! I'll check it out.

you are a good momma! on a different note, I follow a blog that I think you'd really enjoy. its trinitywilbourn.blogspot.com, and ya'lls writing styles are similar. she's a momma of four and like you, sees the big picture within the small things. thought i'd share!
