Lice Aren’t Nice
Bugs don’t care who you are or whether they are invited to visit. They make their home with the poor and the high class, with the homeless and the powerful. I had never stopped to think about this until we were infested. My view of bugs was that they are dirty and my clean house is no habitat for them! How wrong I was! Our first school year in Montana, I met lice! What a sticky friend. They have an incredible ability to jump from one place to another; they must have suction cup feet and they super glue their eggs! They are not easily brushed off your shoulders. And…

Musings of Motherhood
Motherhood requires me to set myself aside, over and over and over again. It reminds me daily, if not hourly, that life is not about me… but about the God of the universe. I am a supporting actress in the greater story and my small role is to bring Him glory. God’s amazing design of family gives us the tiniest glimpse into his relationship with us. I am able to better understand how it is possible to love someone deeply and unconditionally who can be disobedient and quite frankly a total mess! Thank you, Lord, for giving me an example of loving my children completely, even when sometimes I don’t…

Push-ups
Our first child is a passionate, strong willed beauty. She exuded confidence in all areas, even areas that she actually knew NOTHING about. She told me in kindergarten that she did not need to go to college, because she already knew how to be a teacher. In first grade, she was learning subtraction. I attempted to help her (I was a high school math teacher) and she told me that I can’t help her, because her math is too hard for me! She not only excelled at knowing stuff, this girl excelled at pushing boundaries. If she was told that something was off limits, that is all she could think…

Teach Jesus
Yesterday, I was asked what the single most important parenting tip that Good Lookin’ and I would give someone… No doubt, it is… Teach your children about who Jesus is! If your children KNOW who Jesus is, they will know the truth and can use that knowledge to understand the world around them. We have Trained our Children in Truth. So that they can hear a new idea, measure that against the truth they know, and make a solid decision under that information. Jesus is the Father of truth, and Satan is the Father of lies, so we better figure out what is truth so that we are not fooled…
