Tara and I are so excited to spend time today with some friends we lived next to during out time in the army. Blane is off today, too, so it’s just a happy day around here! As usual, I have some excellent posts from around the blogosphere for you to read. I hope you’re encouraged and that you have a wonderful weekend!
Parenting
The Power of a Focused Mother – This goes with chapter 4 of The Mission of Motherhood this week. It is a great, short post about sacrifice for the glory of God.
My Story. Part 1 – You will cry reading this post. I did, anyway. Even if you don’t, you will be encouraged. Have I been vague enough as to it’s content to get you to read it??
Loving our Husbands
Serving Our Husbands Through a Nourishing Diet- Part 1 and Part 2 – I could not have said it better, particularly because the author is a veteran wife of 33 years, seasoned with much more wisdom than this young wife of 6 years. If you don’t consider yourself “passionate” about health & nutrition and really lack a desire to learn about it, I urge you to read these posts. If you get a chance, go back and read through why I do what I do when it comes to health and nutrition. Maybe it will serve as a primer for you to get started in thinking about these things a little more.
Well, I better run. I think Brant decided he wants to take a bath. Our bath tub is really low and this wouldn’t be the first time he’s fallen in head first (no water in it of course) because he’s reaching for toys. 
“See” ya next week!
Thanks so much for linking to my post! It reminded me to get out my Mission of Motherhood book and start reading it.
I also got a little weepy when reading Kat’s post. It is definitely encouraging.
I’m glad you liked the post, Kelly. Sorry I made you cry.
Girl, it has me chomping at the bit for part 2!!!
Your post was most helpful and since we’ve been “talking” about similar things while going through the Mission of Motherhood, I thought my readers would benefit from it, too. Aren’t you anxious for part 2 of Kat’s post?!
