What a better way to keep God's Word in your mouth and pouring out of it to your children than singing God's Word.

    If you are working on memorizing Bible verses a great way to learn them is to sing them I have found, and in doing so your children hear the verses at the same time.  They can learn them along with you too. Or even if they don't actually learn the verse so they can say it from memory, they are at least hearing His Word.

    I go around the house singing off Bibles verses when ever I think of it. I either sing the verses I am currently learning, or refreshing my memory on the past verse I have learned.

  Keeps my memory up on all the verse I have learned, keeps me happy and cheerful, and my children are hearing His Word.

   Also I sing out little bits of different hymns, like the chorus of the hymns. I don't carry a tune, and I know it probably don't sound the greatest, but that isn't what matters I know, so I am ok!!!

 If I can do it, you can too! :)

 So belch out those Bible verses hiding in your memory , and let God's Word come flowing out of your mouth continually!!

In Him,

Mae

winter fun

   Here it is 13 degrees F right now where we live. It is still not very cold, but has cooled off from what we had last week. For a couple weeks in January we had plus temperatures. Some days it was even up 50F. One particular day like that, we found out it was 10 degrees warmer than it was where my brother lives in Texas.  Pretty neat!  It was nice having that warmer weather, giving us break in the winter. Was much easy getting the little ones dressed to go outside. One down fall though was that meeker amount of snow we did have melted mostly gone. So now we are waiting for more snow for the ski hill to open again.
 One up note though is that during the warm weather we ended up with running water in an area out in the woods. Then when our temps dropped again, we were left with a frozen skating rink. What great delight for the children! we now have our own ice rink! a nice gift from God.  They will just have to keep the snow cleaned, and will have a wonderful rink all winter now!


School is going great with 4 students in grades, 9,6,4, and 2. Oh and pre-k, can't miss dear Anna!!
  Benjamin is our lively 3 year old who loves to get into mischief.


Our youngest little "big" guy is growing fast, getting around every where, and super lovable and huggable is now over 8 months. Gotta love Daniel!!

   I know haven't been posting as I should, and as I would like too, but with school keeps me busy. Plus I also have the great honor of helping to organize an above Rubies ladies retreat here in my area. I am so excited about being apart of this wonderful event for moms, and wives. It will be a time of encouragement, inspiration, relaxation, and meeting with other like minded mommas.  I praise the Lord for this great opportunity!  I am  so excited about the upcoming retreat and have been having lots of fun planning and organizing.  But that has been keeping me a tad bit busier than usual.


  Well I will keep posting here as I can.
Take care, and God bless!
In Him,
Mae
