Mothers Who Know

I am back!

I cant believe how fast time goes by. It has been a busy summer. I need to blog about our impromptu trip to Pennsylvania in June. My oldest son went to scout camp and was tapped out for the Order of the Arrow, the next oldest son was baptized last week, and we threw a suprise baby shower for a friend!

I have read a bunch of really good books lately as well. I have started reading Jane Austens books, as well as two on being a good wife. My husband works so hard for us all the time, doing the best he can, I am just trying to be the best I can as well. I love all the tips and advice in the books. I am so far from being the perfect wife - but I try to honor, respect, love and care for him as much as I can. I will post later my thoughts and reviews about the books.

We have also had a interesting experience in sustaining Church leaders, and honoring friendships in the midst of disagreeing with them. I will post later on that as well. I will mention though, how necessary it is sometimes to leave your emotions out of things, and pray for reasoning, understanding, and Christlike love for people, when you are facing challenges.

Lastly, I got these really cool vinyl stickers for my walls - I will try to put up pictures of them later, but they say "As for me and my house we will serve the Lord", which hangs above the dining room entry, and "Return with Honor" on the way out of the back door - that all may be reminded to act appropriately when the leave the house.

Hope you have all had a great summer too.
