Mothers Who Know

"Mothers who know" do less. They permit less of what will not bear good fruit eternally. They allow less media in their homes, less distraction, less activity that draws their children away from their home. Mothers who know are willing to live on less and consume less of the world’s goods in order to spend more time with their children—more time eating together, more time working together, more time reading together, more time talking, laughing, singing, and exemplifying. These mothers choose carefully and do not try to choose it all. Their goal is to prepare a rising generation of children who will take the gospel of Jesus Christ into the entire world. Their goal is to prepare future fathers and mothers who will be builders of the Lord’s kingdom for the next 50 years. That is influence; that is power." ~Julie Beck

Now it is time to try some more...



Jessica and I are trying out the different fonts, I can't figure out how to put a scrapbook page behind so that it looks all creative etc.
We went over to the school to see the chicks. They were very cute I think that there were at least 6 now.

This was a collage of pictures taken last summer on Whidbey Island by my sister in law Lana.
I think each of my kids, most of my nieces and nephews and all of the aunts, uncles, and grandparents are included.
It is the only picture that is on my laptop at this time. Have fun!
We are so excited to begin spring break tomorrow afternoon!! We feel a little bad about not going to Cali like the original plan but I am excited to get my house organized, swim at the Legacy center and just hang out with my kids and hubby!

Kerri, I'm so excited to see you have finally posted something. I've been checking about once a week and I was about to give up. By the way you are much better than me. I don't even have a blog. I'm bummed to hear you're not coming my way this week. It would have been fun to see you. We are going to Utah in July. I'll have to call you tomorrow now that I know you're on Spring Break.
