Praises of a Wife and Mommy

It was 8:00 am and we were outside blowing bubbles on this sunny spring day.  My kids will not tolerate being in doors when the sun is shining and I am cool with that!  We need to get as much sun as we can!   I love you kiddos so much!  xoxoxoxo

Check out the new "Paint the Town" collection from SnapSac .   These reusable totes are great for every purpose. One lucky winner is going to win this collection which includes a mega Tote, Super Tote, and Grocery Tote.  What a great value and awesome prize for one lucky winner.   I was provided with the Grocery Tote to conduct my review.  I was no paid for this review and all opinions are 100% mine.   I love the orange pattern on this bag.  I have been using my tote for about 3 weeks.  I thought with the bright color it was spring enough for me to use as my purse.  I like having a big bag to carry with me since I have been doing a lot of traveling lately.  Also, my purse is dual purposed as a diaper bag so I have to stuff a lot in.   The bag is deep and the extra snap is great to help keep it closed and safe.  The bags are also machine washable which is a big bonus as a mom of two messy children.   ...

I shared a blog awhile back about Heather and her story fighting and surviving her battle with Mesothelioma Cancer .  Watch the above video and be encouraged.  CANCER needs to be cured!  Please help by making a donation to my Light the Night Walk . I am so thrilled that Heather has beaten the odds and still around for her precious daughter.  I still miss my mother and hope that a cure will be found soon.  

It was a HAPPY Mother's Day to me!  Now that my daughter is in 4K it was an extra special treat when she came home from school with a gift for me made by her.   She also had to go pick some "Flowers" outside and put them in some water so it was a display.  I have always been a fan of the little poems and hand print crafts.   I also love the creativity of my daughters teacher with this sweet card that made me smile and laugh.  "Mom, I'll love you even when... I'm all grown up!!"  Seeing my daughter in a wedding dress sure is adorable and funny.  WHAT A GREAT GIFT IDEA!  So mom's what did you get from your kids?  What homemade cards and crafts did they bring home? 

Have you been believing a lie from the enemy?  If so then you need to get your bible out and start reading and quoting the truth's about who you are.   Psalm 46:1  God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Deuteronomy 31:6  Be strong and courageous, don’t be afraid, nor be scared of them: for Yahweh your God, he it is who does go with you; he will not fail you, nor forsake you.” Philippians 4:13  I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.  (one of my favorites)  Numbers 6:25    Yahweh make his face to shine on you, and be gracious to you. Luke 12:32    Don’t be afraid, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom.   

In prayer we honor God in relationship, and then in power we honor His revealed vision and shared dreams. Today we take a look at Hannah in 1 Samuel 1 If you listened to the message above then you just heard my husbands message on Mother's Day at our new church in Iowa.   “I remember my mother’s prayers, they have always followed me. they have  clung to me all my life.” ~ Abraham Lincoln Prayer is awesome and I am thankful for each prayer my other prayed when she was alive. I have been blessed to find some prayers for me that she wrote in her bible.  :)  I think she knew I would marry a preacher!!!  :)    AMEN- God wants to honor you!  :) In prayer we honor God in relationship, and then in power we Honor  His revealed vision and shared dreams. Three things happen when we approach God. 1. We are ruined. But you can't stay there 2. We are cleansed and qualified. But you can't be afraid to mess up 3...
