I eyeballed the soap crafts last time I was there, but never bought it thinking it too much of a pain. But after seeing your easy ‘how-to’ I think I’ll pick me up some Easter crafts! 😉 My son would love doing this too. I make a trip to the big city tomorrow so I’ll have to make a point to hit the Hobby! Since it’s a 4-hour round trip we don’t get out often! LOL And I’m lovin’ my new boy! His face is just beautiful. I’ve told lots of friends and family that our family is growing! yay for 5 more kids sponsered!! I did a marathon reading yesterday and caught up….feels good and I’m so thankful for this reading. My womens’ bible study is doing Matthew and it’s so nice to be getting fresh perspective on the old testament to help with the historical/cultural stuff while reading the new. Congratulations on the new numbers too! We love making soap- great gift, and pretty easy too. There are soo many molds scents 7 colors 🙂 LOVE your passion that you share through your blog! We love Hobby Lobby too!  On Friday–we found out some VERY exciting news. NOPE–no new numbers yet. But still–very exciting in our home.

I don’t expect much movement though…but the Lord’s timing is ALWAYS perfect and I rest in the God of all comfort—who I am trusting to comfort my baby where ever he is! A couple of random things to share today… First, I am SO humbled and thankful […] Praying for the widow and how He might use Me. (i like this). ooohh clever complaining…I’ve never actually called it that but that’s exactly what I do! And to think God doesn’t know what’s really going on in my heart! Ha! Yes, please count me in. You know I’m praying about the widow and Wiphan. I can’t wait to hear about your meeting and how I might get involved. Congratulations on the award..you are truly deserving! p.s. I loved Fields of the Fatherless and Red Letters. Have you read “Hole in our Gospel?” Another outstanding book! So looking forward to hearing more about the new program! i’ve been wanting to read that book so thanks for reminding me of it! I too loved reading Fields of the Fatherless. Praying for how He will continue to use me in this cause! Your example keeps me motivated to do more! I absolutely LOVED that book!!! I’m enjoying ‘The Hole…’ and another one you would love is Adopted For Life. http://www.amazon.com/Adopted-Life-Priority-Adoption-Christian/dp/1581349114/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1267817405&sr=8-1 I have the Red Letters too and need to pull it out and finish it!

I’ve also enjoyed the crafts and photography tips. |

A mentor of mine always says, “You cannot shephard your child’s hear if you are not WITH them!” Just BEING with our kids ALL the time, SPEAKING of His truths and answering thier 5 million questions, then PRAYING the Lord will grow those little seds in their hearts! That being said, I still want you to publish a book (if you got my crazy email 🙂
