Standing Amazed!

Good Morning!
After a wonderful morning here where Dove cared for her room, dressed and groomed herself, without even being asked. Dash redressed without complaint... we were off.

I am stunned amazed and bewildered!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On the way to school this morning I asked Dash if he was alright with meeting his class at the playground cone with his class number on it. Thinking it would make it easier for him not to have to ask for me to come with him. He said "Ya I'm alright"...
"would you like me to come" I asked ...
"no" he said.
Dove chimes in " I 'll help him Mom"...
"no thanks" says he "I can do it "
I Said "wow that must feel great to be so courageous and just walk into it Dash Good for YOU."
Dove you keep an eye, Dash if you need her she will help , Dove don't help unless he asks you too" I direct them
"O.K."... say they

At the curb I drop them off. I did not even need to get out of the car.
"I love you" Have a great day"
"See ya " "Bye Mom"
SO Easy!

Oh , and by the way!!! Remember Dash and his new friend praying for rain yesterday?... Well he had one big old storm about 2 a.m. last night Dash curled up in bed with me for 30 minutes or so for comfort. I don't normally let the children sleep with us. This time I knew he could use a little cuddle for nurture sake. He got up easily and went back into his own bed and I kissed him good night. He awoke happy.
The gutters puddled from the storm.
"So you prayed for rain Son"...
"Wow mom it only rained here?" said he
Out of the whole state Son... you prayed. I bet you cant wait to tell your friend? "You sure have a lot of faith to have that happen.".. I said
"Ya Mom, I do.." Said he.

The prayers of a righteous man avail much.
Thank you all for you goodness and kindness
. Off to do chores. Enjoy the beauty within your heart. Celebrate the day!

Hi, Donetta-

THANKS SO MUCH for the "Nice Matters" award! It is sweet of you to think that way of me.

I know I need to pass it on - I am new to the bolgospere, so I don't have a very broad network. I will think it over.

Older women likewise teach the younger women...

• how to love their husbands
• how to love their children
• how to be self-controlled
• how to be pure
• how to be keepers at home
• how to be kind and submissive (not subservient) to their own husbands. (See Titus 2:3-5)

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

  • A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
  • The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
  • Return with Honor
  • The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
  • "HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
  • “Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
  • "O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
  • "No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"
