source I heard this quote on TV a few mornings ago. Unfortunately I could not figure out the name of the preacher or the show to give proper credit. But, it was too good not to share. Faith is believing God. Fear is believing the enemy. Here are some verses to meditate on: Matthew 8:26 And he said to them, ...

A Home…
I found this quote by an older lady about her growing-old home. It was too perfect not to share. It has sheltered life. It has seen the joy and laughter of children and the quickness of their running feet. It has seen the tears of those who are no longer young and heard their slowing footsteps. It sighs and sometimes ...

Who are you going to believe?
A few mornings ago, I woke up feeling oppressed. Even though it was still dark out and my children's eyelids had not yet opened, I felt like the day was going to be a waste. I preconceived that attitudes would be flaring, obedience be optional, and fighting to be at an all-time high. So, I started praying. ...
DIY “Paint with Water” Pages
The very clever Jenae at I Can Teach My Child! came up with a way to make homemade Paint with Water pages. You may remember these from when you were a kid. Although you can still find them now, it is a tough search. Super for the toddler age kiddos. Definitely going to have to give this a try! I can teach my child!: DIY "Paint with Water" ...
Cars 2: It’s For the Kids..or Is It?
Yesterday I was asked what I had heard about the new Cars 2 movie. I know of several friends who plans to take their little ones to it but haven't talked to anyone who actually as seen the movie. All of our kids have enjoyed the Cars movie. We even thought about taking Bubs to the movie theater for the first time to view the much ...
Oh, Mister Moon
When I was a child we would sing the song "Oh, Mister Moon" while driving home at night. As a child I never dreamed that later in life the moon would affect my life so much. In September 2008 I started charting Bubs days. On my calendar you would see three marks: X, 1/2, and cry. "X" were for the days that were an emotional wreck. "1/2" for days ...
Learning the Books of the Bible
A few months ago, I felt compelled to add the New Testament Books of the Bible to the 4 Year ABCJLM curriculum. This lead to working on them with our own kiddos. I started working on them at meal time but found that I was forgetting in the mist of serving second helpings and cleaning up sticky fingers. So, I moved this ...
