I'm a rules-follower and learning from those around me about grace and liberty is something I really enjoy pushing myself to try.

I remember well 2-yr-old Isa's adorable sleepy face, after waking up from a nap... How time flies! Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Your timing was phenomenal! Just yesterday I debated whether to mop the floors or to work on translating and adapting two songs for Shana, who will come home from college tomorrow, for Spring break, ready to sing her heart out for a week!! And I am proud to announce that the floors are properly sticky this morning, yet I have three songs for her! Thanks also for reminding us what it is like to really "believe that your child was created by the Triune God to display His greatness". So often we are tempted to turn these poor kids into mirrors that reflect our own "greatness" to our peers... all along labeling our desire for "greatness" as the need to be a good witness in the world. I am not in the least surprised that your first blog entry would be so insightfully rich... I have always thought of you as a grace-aware person living a grace-filled life and it shows here. Looking forward to the future of this blog.

Seriously!!?? but once I moved on from that, truly I got very happy inside when I saw you'd started a blog on parenting. almost 3 is proving to be a new phase of pushing boundaries, being influenced by other little friends, and a need for more discipline than was ever needed before and some days I mourn the loss of how easy my relationship with E was before this. So looking forward to new insight, most especially from you! :)Jayme and Genevievehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05228453102675390839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8307364721696685333.post-86596479166166215572011-03-08T19:32:57.343-08:002011-03-08T19:32:57.343-08:00Dear friends, thank you.
