Hi there Amy. Looks like this is a huge campaign for lots of us following your lead. Thank you for all the details - you must be tired.
Father in heaven,
I thank you for the gift of Amy and her leadership and pray that You will sustain her daily, strengthen her with Your supernatural strength, keep her and the baby safe in Your arms and grant to her more grace and inspiration as she rests upon You daily to do Your will. I pray also for her family that Your peace and joy, harmony and protection will be over each member of the family. Thank You Lord. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
Take care dear friend, you are in my prayers.

I cleaned out my car and I also tackled my boys' bathroom today. I took pictures and I wish I could post them on here so ya'll could see how absolutely disgusting my house has gotten. My husband actually helped my 2B6 clean his room tonight so that's one less room I have to do! Yay for my hubby! I got a great idea from Homestead Happenings for keeping bath towels at bay and I'll share that with you now: give each of your children a different color of bath towels ( I gave my boys 2 each). My 1B8- dark blue, 2B6- light blue, 3B4- yellow. They are responsible for their own towels as well as their clothes. They are not to use the other one's towels, and they are not to go downstairs with their towels after their bath because that is where all my bath towels end up. They have to dry off as soon as they get out of the bath and then hang their towel up for next time. So far it's working well, but it takes discipline on both my part and theirs. I haven't held them accountable for their belongings and I end up doing it all because the perfectionist in me wants it done a certain way. It's time I give my perfectionism to the Lord and get practical! Especially if I want my house to be clean and if I want my house to be a home!
Amy, I am loving the planner. I have quite a bit filled in and my notebook all assembled. Do you plan to put the room specific lists out ahead of time so you won't have to worry with it when your little one arrives? If so, that would also be helpful to those who aren't following your exact timeline. I'm fiddling with it a bit because I know I'll need more time in some areas. I'm off to do my weekly shopping tomorrow, so hopefully I can reign it in so I don't blow the grocery challenge.
Yes, I'm working on the detailed room lists... it should go faster once I get one done (the vehicle and outside are so different than the rooms). Thanks for your patience (and hubby already is making sure I have everything lined up so he can take care of it when baby comes! a;slkda;sldfj)
Blessings,
Amy
(When this is all done, there will be a revised organizer with the detailed lists in it for those who join then...)
Great job with all of this Amy! I am waaay impressed, especially with you being extra-prego right now. :-) Thank you for putting so much heart and effort into such a worthy and great idea...it's exactly what I need!
Although I can't start the challenge right now, I hope to in two weeks when my currently crazy life slows down a little bit. I think it is extra fabulous that I can start whenever I want-- and learn from everyone else that's starting before me!
Hope you have a fabulous week and get that yard finished up! :-)
and a woman seeking the Lord's Will (daily), a wife (striving to keep the romance alive), a "Smamma" (Step- mother) of one and a homeschooling mom of seven (I was never going to have children), who starts every day over (after messing SOME thing up the day before), knowing God's grace is overflowing (just like my laundry), and so thankful He's blessed me more than I'll ever deserve.
