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

It's SNOWING!

So Darren has decided to attend Snow College in the fall. We are really excited and grateful because this means that he has some academic scholarship money and it is cheaper than BYU. He just found out that he has been chosen as a finalist in their student government program. This would be such an awesome experience for him. He is such an awesome kid. I'm glad that other people see him as such:) I'm going to miss having him around though. He is really fun:)
