I have been reading Julia Child’s My Life In France, and have been enjoying it.Her way of writing flows so very well, and is engagingly entertaining. She and her husband Paul spent two years in Norway, and her description of Norwegians reminded me so much of the ones I know (er, my family):“There were … more redheads per square meter than anywhere else I’d ever been. Every Norwegian seemed to be good-looking and healthy, and to have an air of…
I am totally in love with Baby’s room. There are times that I walk and just sit and look and dream. She’ll be here so soon, and yet that time still feels so far away. It still seems unreal that in a few weeks there will be a real live baby here, sleeping, blinking, yawning, needing us. Our Baby. I love this room. Because it is on the North side of the building, the light is soft and glowy, kind…

Oh wow ………. only 35 days left (give or take).
Josh Nathan My mother-in-law Teri, Sarah and the younger guys came down on Monday and we trecked IKEA. Or, at least, I think the guys were with us …….. IKEA’s winter sale is going on, and some of the prices are down 30-50%. After a little bt of considering, I picked up a few things that I had had my eye on for a while, such as: the Molger bath organizer for 5.99 There were a few other things that…
With eyes wide open to the mercies of God, I beg you, my brothers, as an intelligent act of worship, to give Him your bodies, as a living sacrifice, consecrated to Him and acceptable by Him. Romans 12:1, Phillips In pregnancy and childbirth, I do one of the most amazing physical feats humans can do: I present my body as a living sacrifice for the sake of creating by God’s power another person.
