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

Daddy's Girls and Boy...

Ryan is a great dad. He plays with the kids and they love to be around him all of the time. He builds things with Darren and works in the yard with him. He teases with Kathryn and teaches her lots of jokes and tricks to play on others. With the little girls he mostly plays and entertains. He is going to be 39 this week and we have been celebrating his birthday all weekend. He is also so fun to go out on dates with. Whether it be just drivng down the street or grocery shopping or actually doing the dinner/movie type date. I'm glad that he is my husband and also the father of our kids!
