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

The month of May

Wow... It is almost over, the school year, Darren's high school career, my job at Saratoga, it seems like everything is coming to an end. Stephanie has 3 more days of elementary school then she will be in junior high, Jessica has 3 more days of jr. high and then she will be in high school.
I can't believe how fast this school year has flown by. I moved out of my classroom this weekend I will only be a shark for 4 more days.
I have loved the people that I work with. I will definitely miss the staff at this school. I am excited for my new adventure and had fun playing with the people on my new staff. I'm also excited to go to Boston next week. I am also excited for the 2 babies that will join our family in the next 5 weeks!

Lots of change, some sad but much exciting too! I am quite envious of you going to Boston. Have a great time and I need to hear ALL about the trip when you get home.
