By Example

I’ve always known that children learn best from example. As a parent of many toddlers, sometimes that thought is overwhelming. “What kind of example am I setting right now...?” It inspires me to aim higher, yes. But it also sobers and humbles me. For instance, how often to I complain to my children that I am tired of hearing complaining? 🙊 In all seriousness, I start and end each day on my knees asking earnestly for grace to be a picture of Jesus to my precious babies. And a picture of godly, faithful, contented motherhood. The other week we were planting strawberries. Lynnea Rose is a real helper girl and wanted to hand me the plants. Sometimes she pulled the leaves off when trying to free the plugs from their tray and more than once I had to stop myself from encouraging her to “go and play”. How easy it is to forget the simple truth that in order for little ones to become proficient helpers they must be allowed to help. Suddenly she paused and “checked” on the ba...

His Work In Me

My one year old teaches me about finding satisfaction in a process. She loves to sweep. She takes a little hand broom and struts around the house stopping now and then to tap the floor with much gusto. Then she moves on to another area where she again taps the floor and groans to emphasize the effort. She has no idea about clean or dirty floors or that there is a object to be gained by sweeping them. She is just filled with delight in the task itself. Of course the joy being in the process and not in the product is not limited to sweeping. If you’ve spent time with any toddler you know what I mean. They pull all the dishes out of the cupboard and if you come along they will be quite happy to help put them back where they belong, but just as you are putting the last item back, thinking, “phew, task complete” they are pulling them out all over again with joy and alacrity- like: “Mom, that was so fun. Let’s do it again”. We could empty a cupboard and fill it again a doz...

2019 Reflections

We’ve watched another year come and go, its joys and perplexities now registered on the pages of our history. Love and gratitude wells up in our hearts, as we look back and consider, undeserving as we are, the unfailing love, mercy and grace of our precious Lord and Savior Jesus! Without His grace, we would have no hope of a life worth living....and even more so in this age of uncertainty. Pressing close to each other some weeks ago now, to make everyone fit into the frame of our family Christmas picture at “Sweetwater” was a fitting reminder of the past year’s blessings! Providence had our 4 girls surprised and delighted, during the latter part of 2018, to find themselves embarking together on the awe inspiring journey of pregnancy. Each of the 3 new mommies-to-be—Natasha, Vanessa and Shayla had hopes of experiencing the joys of natural childbirth in a birthing center... ...while Chantee, our more veteran mommy of 3 babes, aspired to (and e...
