Chores, Chores, Chores.

I have decided I need to be more consistent with my house cleaning routines. What this means for my family is they need to be more active in helping me out. I can not seem to get all the way around by myself.

Here Priscilla is making an effort to mop the diningroom floor before we get started with devotions and homeschooling.
This is a pic of Jeremiah waiting for his turn with the mop. He'll get to mop the kitchen area.

My thought is, if we can get a small chunk out of the way before we start the day, things will actually get done.



Wish me luck!

On the mend

It's been three days since Jeremiah, Priscilla and I have been on antibiotics. We are all finally starting to feel better. Sickness is sure a pain. It gets in the way of getting things done. Oh well!
In spite of all that we had our Ladies Retreat this week end.
The theme of our retreat was Encouraging One Another. Let me just say Wow!

God met me there in an amazing way. He showed me that it takes great discipline to know the difference between serving Him to be perfect and being perfected while serving Him. The first brings pride in what I can do. The latter is much more humbling, yet much more fulfulling.
