  • I love my wild, unweeded garden. I love flowers. G I love my wild, unweeded garden. I love flowers. God grew all the flowers and greens in my garden. I get to cut them and bring them inside. Eden and I picked them; it’s one of her favorite things to do when she comes over. We go look at the flowers and cut the ones we want. Then we make an arrangement. I’m teaching her to love nature, worship God’s creation, and manage her nervous system by enjoying the outdoors.

What are you doing outside for your mental health? Do something! Take the time.

    A review from this year: “our boys look forward to A review from this year: “our boys look forward to it each evening, and it has become a meaningful part of our nightly routine. Each story ends with a prayer, and our boys take turns reading the prayer out loud, which has been a wonderful way for them to practice both reading and praying aloud. The discussion questions are thoughtful and really encourage the boys to thing deeper. We especially love hearing their unique perspectives and insights as they engage with God’s Word. This book does a great job of making Scripture accessible and engaging for kids of all ages. Highly recommend for families…”. THANK YOU, MD, for your helpful and thoughtful review. Blessing on your children! #kidsbible #teachingcompassion #storybookbible #kindness #godislove

    Our maturity happens in stages and seasons. We can Our maturity happens in stages and seasons. We can be old and still be in a spring season or young and be in a winter season. Nature is a wonderful reminder that beautiful things die and beautiful things grow again. Give God a chance to do something new in this season of your life. #seasons #maturity  #spiritualgrowth #life #death

    Every day is a chance to feel grateful for the pas Every day is a chance to feel grateful for the past, enjoy the present, and anticipate the future. When I live in awe of God’s gifts, I won’t hang on so tightly that my blessings hurt. I can’t thank God enough for the blessing of loving my children and grandchildren. So here’s my suggestion—read books that remind you and your loved ones that God’s love transcends time. Even when life is hard, God’s love carries us through.  His faithfulness makes our memories precious, and his promises makes our futures hopeful.  You can find the book’s link to Amazon in my bio or just google any book distributor. #godslove #parentallove #iloveyoumore #kidlit #picturebook
