Raising arrows for the Lord

Jun. 28, 2008

no title!

We went to see Wall-E today and it was a good movie-we all liked it. It was a bit hard to hear at times because the  people behind us talked throughout the whole movie. My husband even turned around at one point and asked them to please be quieter. They did quiet down for a  few minutes but soon returned to their narrative. 

Our neighbor's two year old grandson is visiting and he came over today with his grandma to play on our swingset. He is soo cute! I was helping him climb up into the treehouse and he was so light! It  brought  back lots of happy memories of  our children when they were toddlers. I just love two year olds! Well, every age is great in its own way.  I am really glad I have the Mom's Notes tapes on the different ages and stages. I was reading Preteen Wise while we were camping and was reminded of how crucial transitions are. As my children go into their middle school years, I need to work on transitioning from ruling by my authority to guiding by my influence, working off a relationship of trust and acceptance.

We have family nights on Fridays and another thing I am going to do (as suggested in the Preteen Wise book) is having the children start planning these. They are excited about it and I am excited to see what they will plan!
