Teach Our Daughters, Teach our Sons

The Good Ole' Summertime!

Salvation Army Deals can't be beat!

This was a recent purchase at our Salvation Army! A wonderful way to spend $3.00!!! The cute doll baby was 99cents and the doll carrier was $2.00. See the smile on my real-live doll there. She was happy as can be... and that is priceless! :)

If you never shopped at a thrift store.. give it a try. We found bags full of great items so inexpensive ... and the money goes to help those in need!!!

Great Idea: Jewelry Organization!

I just found this wonderful idea while browsing through some of my favorite blogs.I have many hooks in closets to hold necklaces (in both my own and in my daughter's closets) but this idea is nicer because it can also hold earrings and bracelets.

I even have a very neat old shabby chic door I've had for years. I love the look of but never knew just what to do with it. I think that is what I will use.

Since I needed to bookmark and remember this idea to get this project done, I thought I'd post it here too because someone else might like this great idea as much as I do!

Here is the link to the blog with project directions for the above jewelry organizer!

Mothering: Greatest job ever!

Being a mother is the greatest job ever....

(Thank you Lord for the privilege of raising these children for you!)

Secrets of the Proverbs 31 Woman

This is a cross-stich pattern done by my mother-in-law. It hung in their kitchen. Upon her death, this is one of the two cross-stiches I got of hers.

And here is something I recommend you read....

It is just a very encouraging quick-read from this morning. I wanted to share it with you all!...

Sure her family saw this woman at her worst, but her best was what has been remembered by generations.

“Her children rise up and call her blessed;

Her husband also, and he praises her:

“Many daughters have done well, but you excel them all.” Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.

Give her of the fruit of her hands,

And let her own works praise her in the gates.”
