A good post on judging , and making sure to clarify between judging the sin of the world and of the brethren. Do we let people be happy, and not say anything, in order to not rock the boat, or do we speak up? Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his... (More)

Lost Planner, Boys' Events

I lost my planner just before Christmas (as far as I can deduce, in a shopping cart in the parking lot of Jo-Ann's on McKnight Rd - anybody seen it? Please return it, you can keep the gift cards, I just want the information!) It had several notes in it about cute things the boys... (More)

More Quotes, More Jumping, Drawing

Well, so far he hasn't forgotten things from before he was three. Just out of the blue the other day, Jonathan was talking about the Maggie P and said, "That burning up fire toilet is pretty cool." Speaking of being three, he will occasionally ask me, "Mommy, am I... (More)

Saturday Adventure

It has been a long time since the last time Jonathan and I went out on a trip together, and Heather suggested that I take the kids to give her some time to clean and other things by herself. First, we glued all of the dining room chairs, since they have been falling apart more than usual... (More)

Long Commute

Tonight, due to the Steeler's game, the first snowfall, and regular silly commuters, my trip home took an hour and 15 minutes, resulting in an average speed of 3.5 miles an hour. The last mile and a half took 45 minutes. I even saved a half an hour by calling Heather when I got close to... (More)

Not Forgotten

Just because we were too busy to post does not mean we did not think about Isaac this Thanksgiving. Tuesday the 21st was his 4th birthday. At women's Bible study we sang a song about the people of God, the Church, Christ's body - and one phrase reminded me of the support in... (More)

Noah Gets A Post, Too

Noah loves to laugh at himself in the mirror. At Thanksgiving, he figured out that he can pull himself with his elbows in addition to pushing with his knees. This enables him to reach things placed initially out of reach, but it's not coordinated crawling yet. ... (More)

Several Jonathan Stories

I have accumulated some random stuff about Jonathan for quite a while. Here thay are finally written down. After being stuck on 11 for quite some time, Jonathan now can count to 29, only skipping a few. This is what he said when describing how many people he wanted to come to... (More)

How Important is Doctrine Anyway?

I was at a small conference last weekend, which I suppose deserves another post entirely, but in summary, God used that conference to stir up and provoke me to love and seek him more. At the conference, one of the speakers (Rick Walth) talked about his experiences over the last couple years... (More)

50 Days of Heaven - Day 4

I sort of got discouraged on days 2 and 3, where I didn't find much that was edifying. But day 4 had a couple interesting things.One was a question I have about "Eden has been trampled, torched, and savaged." I have thought Eden was doing okay. I guess maybe if the whole... (More)

500th post

Who would have guessed that back when I started writing back in November of 2002 that I was starting what would eventually become a blog, and fairly regular posts? Certainly not me. Here are the "most significant posts" calculated by various methods: Number of comments:... (More)

Offended Appliance

Somehow the appliance spies informed our dryer that we were at Sears looking at a new dryer. Heather wanted to get a new one, since this one doesn't have a low heat setting - but the dryer has worked fine for years. The next time we used our dryer, it refused to start a couple times,... (More)

Bubbles, Ticklish

Noah is very interested in his new teeth - he sticks his tongue in and out over them a lot and then goes "bbbbb" and makes bubbles. He is definitely ticklish now, mostly on his ribs but also under his armpits. He has passed a toy (or Daddy's finger) from one hand to another several... (More)

Redeeming Birth

Beth has a friend whose first child was stillborn at full term. Then she got pregnant with twins and Beth asked the women's Bible study to pray for the health of the babies and their birth. This morning Beth told us that since Lisa and the babies had safely reached 37 weeks that they would do... (More)

Noah 4 Months

Noah's height chart is doing the same straight-line projection that Jonathan's weight chart did. 28" tall, 18lb 11oz. I never pay much attention to the head circumference number, but that chart was also straight-line. The last two times, the nurse has double-checked that measurement, but... (More)
