Kids are great, kids are fun, kids keep you on your toes and never cease to entertain you. Our daughter, Jayden (4) said the funniest thing the other day. It seems her grandpa's dog, Buddy, had run into a skunk and had to be bathed several times with tomato juice.

Well, when I picked Jayden up from grandpa's she told me, "buddy got a bath with a-mato juice 'cause he got stunked!"

That was the cutest thing I think I have heard in a looonngg time and oh, did I get a chuckle. Moriah and I kept asking her to repeat herself and everytime she said it, we just died laughing. She eventually caught on and wouldn't say it anymore.


...yesterday I caught Moriah taunting Jayden in the laundry room. Jayden was helping her fold laundry and they were turning the light on and off and scaring each other. Moriah kept telling her there was a ghost, then I'd remind Jayden that her sister is full of it. I assured her there were no ghosts. Every time I said anything Moriah would whisper, "yeah, but she doesn't really know for sure..." So, while they were occupied, I snuck out of the front door and walked around to the garage and to the other side of the laundry room door. I stood there and listened for a little while and sure enough, Moriah was still scaring Jayden..So I thought I'd give her a taste of her own medicine. Just as she said, "she doesn't know..." again, I banged on the door with all my might! They both screamed, I mean SCREAMED in fright...it was HILARIOUS. I opened the door and showed Jayden it was just me, playing a joke on Moriah. She got such a kick out of it. I totally freaked Moriah out, she was just asking for it. I just love being a mom. Sometimes it is just SO satisfying. hehe

Let Him dwell within me, ALL of my days. He is my and the only source of real JOY! The world is a liar. Only YOU can decide who you want to be, your identity is either in the world or in Jesus. If it's in Jesus then you are perfect because He is perfect. He atoned for all of our real imperfections. If sin leads to death, why do we chase it? Why do we chase the grave instead of His grace? Me too, it's a daily surrender of my desire for the world. Daily, hourly, minutely. The pull is intense and the struggle is real. Literally. No matter what happens to me, you know your mother's heart chases after Jesus Christ Himself. It is not the path of least resistance. On the contrary. I live my life for Him and through Him because I have already experienced the contrary. It was a state of darkness and death. Absence of light and of love. Of course I want to spare you the suffering of that course but sometimes we must walk through that mire to appreciate Him as he washes it off of us s...
