I have been tagged and here is my answer

I do not want to make everyone think that I am being judgemental but these are just my thoughts and beliefs Tell Everyone what you would do if you were on wife swap! What qualities about my family would you want others to share in? First part: I would never make it onto wife swap as I do not believe in it, I am not willing to share my hubby with anyone and he is not willing to share me with anyone. I believe it is violating God's laws on marriage. Second part: The qualities in our family would be the experience of loving, honest and the openness to share with one another.

Here is a daring natural remedy
|
How to go No Shampoo Dissolve about 1 tablespoon of baking soda (I use 1/2 cup for my hair as it is long and thick) in just enough water to make a paste. Apply this to your roots only; work it in and let it sit for a minute. In order to stimulate blood flow, clean your pores and get off built up grime, use your fingertips to scrub your scalp. start by making a circle on the top of your headon the area you would wear a crown. Focus on the back of this area to begin with. Next, fill in the circle. Lastly, scrub the back of your skull and your temples and sideburns. This will result in less grease and more growth. After doing this, your scalp will feel alive. Many women swear their hair grows faster after a visit to the salon, it does and this technique is why. Next, pour about 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar into a cup and add water. After you rinse the baking soda out of your hair, pour the apple cider vinegar over the ends of your hair, let it sit for about a minute and then rinse it out. That's all there is to it. I have done this for the past 2 weeks now and I can verify that it works great. My hair is alot healthier looking, softer to the touch and no longer looks like straw. My husband loves it. To give it an added bonus, I add about 2 drops of essential oil of Lavender.

How do you show your husband that you appreciate him?
|
For myself, I show that I appreciate him, (other than by making sure he has a clean house and a hot meal waiting for him when he gets home from a long day at work) by singing to him. There is one song in particular that I sing to him that he says he feels it makes him feel adored and loved. The song is called "When You Say Nothing At All," by Toby Kieth. Here are the lyrics: It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart Without saying a word you can light up the dark Try as it may I could never explain What I hear when you don't say a thing Chorus: The smile on your face Let's me know that you need There is a truth in your eyes Saying you'll never leave me The touch of your hand Says you'll catch me whenever I fall You say it best When you say nothing at all All day long I can hear people talking out loud But when you hold me near You drown out the crowd Poor Mr. Webster could never define What's being said between your heart and mine Chorus: The smile on your face Let's me know that you need me There is a truth in your eyes Saying you'll never leave me The touch of your hand Says you'll catch me whenever I fall You say it best When you say nothing at all Repeat Chorus So now that one of my little secrets is out, come and share how you show your husband that you appreciate him.

A New Day In More Than One Way
|
The new day started for me last night actually, when my husband offered me kindness and forgiveness, when I deserved his wrath. Through his act of kindness and forgiveness, it has encouraged me to do all and anything I can to please him and to be everything a wife is meant to be according to God. We knelt down last night to pray together, but instead of me ending my prayer when he did, I kept going praying a prayer that would better our relationship and strengthen our love. It is so freeing to pray and let God take care of it all. So if you haven't prayed yet, may I give you some advice from a friend and a wife to do that now. My load is now light for Jesus is now carrying it and giving me strength and a new found peace. Respectfully Yours In Him Cysco ![]() |

Back Again
|
I am sorry it has been so long again since my last post! I have been enjoying my life as wife and mother so much, that I have not been able to find the time to post on here lately. And to tell you the truth, I have been at a loss for words to write. Here I am struggling to know what to write even now. All that aside, I have been working right along side of my DG's and having a blast. They are learning how to be a godly wife in a fun loving atmosphere. This past week we have been working on new ways to school this year. I have done a major over haul of how we are going to learn this year, which I believe will help them to come to love learning and to be able to retain things better. One of the things we are going to try is the floor game. We simply took some paper, cut them in half. I then wrote some multiplication questions on them, I used some extra pieces of paper for move forward 3 spaces, go back 1 space, go back to start, and so on. Lay them out in any pattern on the floor, use a dice, and we are the pieces. For vocabulary, we are going to play another game where I have 5 or 6 letters in each muffin tin and then we try and toss a penny in one of the tins, and the one we land in, we have to take those 5 or 6 letters and make a word from them. Just some things I thought that I would share. Have a fun day! In Him, Cysco ![]() |

I am finally back, but......
|
I may not be posting on a daily basis anymore. Probably every other day only. During my time off I have learned (God has brought me to a new understanding) a few things about being a better keeper of the home, being a godly wife and a better example for my girls to learn by. God has used two things to teach me these valuable lessons, one being His Word and the other being the family series "The Walton's". One evening during my nightly reading of the Bible, I prayed that God would reveal to me how to be a better helpmeet for my husband? At the time I was reading in the book of Eccl. and I cannot specifically remember reading any verses in that Book on being a godly wife, but it came to me as clear as a bell. I heard very clearly and loud a voice speaking to me, "If I were to come into your house, how would you serve me? Serve your husband as if you were serving me while I am sitting in your home." I have no doubt as to who I was hearing. I spent the rest of the night pondering over how I already serve my husband and how I can better serve him like I would Jesus. One of the ways that I can is by spending less time on the computer and more time doing things during the day that I know will please him and have everything ready in comfort waiting for him when he gets home from a long hard day at work. The next lesson was by watching The Walton's with my girls. Studying what made Olivia Walton a good wife and mother. From there I desired most of all to be that kind of wife and mother to my husband and girls. And part of being that is by spending less time on the computer and more time with my family. When my girls grow up and have families of their own, I want them to be able to look back and have memories of me spending time with them, teaching them, and laughing together. I do not want them to remember that MOM was always on the computer, and never took the time for them. So if you do not see any posts for a couple of days at a time, know that I am off having fun with my girls and being a wife. In Him, Cysco ![]() |
