Girls Night

Since Raegan has made it two nights without a pull-up on and was got up each morning with dry panties I rewarded her with a girls night to Big Al's. We drive by it every day on our way to daycare, and she asks if we can go. Even though going on a Friday night, probably wasn't a good idea we still had fun. Love hanging out with my girl.

Under Construcion

Some of you may have noticed, but my blog is under construction. I am changing things around a little, but will still be posting my usual stuff. The daily devotional, fashion Friday, and Raegan will all have there own pages. You will be able to click the link, right now to the right, but soon it will be at the top of the page and it will direct you to the right pages.

You everything likes the changes :)

Deuteronomy 4:9
9 “But watch out! Be careful never to forget what you yourself have seen. Do not let these memories escape from your mind as long as you live! And be sure to pass them on to your children and grandchildren.

FAITH STORIES

It is amazing how quickly we forget or dismiss the ways God has been faithful to us. We become distracted, self-sufficient, or focused on a new problem. God knows these human tendencies. That is why He asks us to actively remember His blessings. He takes it one step further by instructing us to share these stories with our children. Children learn from example. If parents model a faith that is alive and real, it will have incredible influence on them.

Ephesians 6:16 talks about taking up the shield of faith to defend against the evil one. Your family's shield of faith can be constructed with stories of God's faithfulness and provision.

Take the time to communicate to your kids the many ways God has blessed you. It is an affirmation for you and an example to them.
