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

Choir Tour

Over twenty years ago I was introduced to Choir/Theater tours. My first adventure was flying from LAX to Washington D.C. for a week. It was really fun and a trip I will never forget. We had very 80's tour outfits and we performed with John Jacobson America Sings...
The next year we made trips to Disneyland, Palm Springs, Sacramento and San Francisco. They were fun trips as well but made on charter buses.
Well this year it was Darren's turn. He left on a bus for Seattle on Wednesday afternoon and just arrived home at 1:30am. That is a lot of bus driving. It was fun that we could text his cell phone and check up on him and visit while they were driving so we had a good idea of when he'd be home. Now I'm off to bed I'll have to visit with him more after we have both done some sleeping.
