I LOVE that you are doing this too! You are so far ahead of me! I just printed out those booklets too. Looking forward to see what the Lord will do in my family's life and in yours. I'm praying for your house to sell!
It has been good to do these booklets this week with the kids. They write the same thing over and over some days, but that's okay, it gets them thinking! Have you read the book? I'm still reading it. It's good. And, I just realized this is Sherry W!! I couldn't tell from your profile picture,so I had to do some digging. :) I just wish I had more time to read blogs and write on mine. I love how you mentioned writing summer posts in the winter in your welcome page, because I have all sorts of stuff I need to catch up on here! :) Thank you for your prayers. We are trusting God, though our faith waivers.
We were in Minnesota recently for the Children Desiring God conference. Loved it. Beautiful state! You guys liking it there?
