In the Nook...Before I go into the details of the contest I'd like to say Thank you to all who prayed for us during my daughters illness. She is doing better, not totally, but well on the way. We found out that two of the medicines she was already on for allergies were interacting with the newest one. She off all meds now, at least for the time being!
I have gone through some family issues recently and also went for a time without a computer. I could not have made it without friends praying and being there to help me hang on. I truly realized how blessed I am so I decided to have a friendship giveaway.
It was so nice to see your comment on my blog the other day. You're such a caring person. We've been having a good (rather quiet) Summer. Lots of time spent just "hanging out" with friends and taking care of things on the farm,
Sounds like you all had a hum-dinger of a time with your daughter's medicine, but God always shows Himself through it all, doesn't He?
Hope you all are doing well. Your husband certainly sounds like an absolute gem. You all are very blessed to have each other!
I made a little change with my Friends List. It's on the left side and to open it just click on the word "Friends" and it pops out! Neat, huh! To close it click on it again! Thank you

Seven Steps to Raising Godly Children
Principle - Impart God's word on your children and live in a way that you are their greatest example of what a Christ-abiding parent should be.
Pattern - Teach your children a pattern of prayer; when to pray, how to pray, and why prayer is important.
Persistence - Don't ever give up...teach your children to always have faith and not to give up when things get hard.
Participation - Our children crave our attention! The way our children see us is the way they'll see God in thier lives.
Praise - Encourage children, praise them when they do something right and help them when they have a hard time.
Prayer - Teach your children to pray and then to TRUST God for the outcome.
Priority - Make God the Head and Heart of your home and let them live with God's desire coming first in your lives.
