About Me

I am a blessed homeschooling mother of 7 married to my best friend Jim who is a naval aviator. Between deployments, moving, and new babies, life around our house is never dull for long and can often be quite entertaining. I've been told I should start writing it all down, so here goes...

"Teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom." Psalm 90:12

"But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin's deceitfulness." Hebrews 3:13

Snippets

"Discipline is the wholehearted yes to the call of God.  When I know myself called, summoned, addressed, taken possession of, known, acted upon, I have heard the Master I put myself gladly, fully and forever at His disposal and to whatever He says my answer is yes."  ~Elisabeth Elliot in "Discipline-the Glad Surrender"

I am determined to spend more time reading books and less time reading snippets of them on the internet.  Snippets are good, especially when there is little time for reading, but I'm really craving some good books right now.  I'm starting with this one.

It seemed fitting, since a friend challenged me to give up caffeine, starting today.

lol. And you're doing well!! Keep up the good work!! (not to mention, it's for a good cause; but I'm not sure that "good cause" is acting like he appreciates it very much...)
Your loving daughter!!
Which one could it be?? Well, my username already gave me away. But I'm sure it could be Shelby just logged into Samantha's profile. Hm? Not likely? Well, you're right, it's:
