live.
We've had a lot of happenings around here, including Britt's sweet sixteen birthday and today Kate's third birthday. It's surreal to me - to have a daughter with a driver's license and another still in a carseat. Surreal but crazy beautiful too. Earlier today a friend lamented giving away her nursing pillow and a bouncy seat. She cried because she says they don't plan on having anymore children. She has two very little ones, the oldest is only 3. But I wonder, how many people make those kind of "final" family-size decisions when they are in the thick of the hard toddler/baby years, only to regret it later. Because those years do pass away and the next thing you know you have a lot more time to sew ...

New suppertime scripture
I chose this particular scripture after reading about it on Elizabeth's blog. I love it.
You have been told, O mortal, what is good, and what the Lord requires of you: Only to do justice and to love goodness, and to walk humbly with your God. Micah 6:8

Suppertime Scripture
We have memorized lots of Scripture verses just by having the verse on a whiteboard in the kitchen and reciting it after our blessing at each meal. It really works! So that I can keep a record of our verses from now on, I'm going to update this post everytime we start on a new verse, about every 2-3 weeks or so. I like to spend time and just let it really sink in. There's no rush. You will know what "behavioural issues" we might be facing in our family because I try to choose a verse that will help :).
And our latest one:
"You have been told, O mortal, what the Lord requires of you: only to do justice and to love goodness, and to walk humbly with your God." Micah 6:8

"Fools find no pleasure in understanding but delight in airing their own opinions." Proverbs 18:2
"When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, "Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb." Luke 1:41-42
"Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone." Collosians 4:6
