To see the world the way You do

To see detailed hearts and what love will make us,
I pray I can see what you see- despite all-
behold in a moment what You see in a lifetime-
deep drenching love, deep beyond it all.

I pray also for my husband and kids- fire
to burn away the crustiness, labels, and reveal
eyes that see- through our hearts- can guide us
to be the Jesus that He is to me.

A special birthday

My eldest had a birthday and turned 9! 9 is a special number because research has shown that around that age, they can learn anything that you as an adult can.

Sure love that boy, he has gone through so many moves and changes in our family and also, being the oldest, gone through everything first as the tester. His heart is strong and kind, his love is deep! Papa has been working hard! learning passe compose, futur proche and different tenses, also 300-500 of vocab per week if not more. some days are harder than others but if there is one thing he has taught me is the meaning of endurance and perseverance.

But overall he is loving the learning and regular schedule and th...

Papa started his first week at language school and the first week was all about English grammar. The thinking that if you learn English grammar, then that will enable you to learn another language (more easily?). It was a weird thing for him to have homework again... We celebrated Warrior's 2nd birthday this week and it was really funny, as I had prepared a cake and frosted it (half vanilla and half chocolate) and everyone waited inside eagerly but he didn't want to come it- just wasn't interested. he was sitting outside just playing with some dirt. Finally we got him to come in, and as I lit each of the two candles, he blew them out- it was so funny! b...
