I guess I will need to read the book - I have not liked a fair amount of what John Piper has to say (which is unfortunate, since my church loves everything he says). But I happened across Slice of Laodicea and read the following quote today, which is exactly how I have been thinking recently:... (More)

I have a couple cds of Keith Green, but hadn't ever actually seen him. I happened across For Such A Time As This and watched this video of Asleep In The Light: (More)

"CR" Sound, Math Rhymes

Jonathan was rolling out fondant and playing with cookie cutters and talking to himself about them when I heard him say, "cross" correctly! He also said, "green" correctly so I asked him to say "Grammy" and he did! They do sound slightly like... (More)

Birthday Sail

Jon told me last night that our friend Lisa from church was coming at 10am and we needed to be prepared to go somewhere cool for many hours. In the morning, I was telling Jonathan about how six years ago on this day (my 21st birthday - after we were engaged and before we were married)... (More)

Milk and Freedom

Serina wrote a post on raw milk that I started to comment on, when I decided it deserved a whole post on my own blog. I thought the person quoted in the raw milk article made a good point about lettuce, etc. making people sick. Think of the recent spinach/e.coli thing. Are states now... (More)

Worship Quote of the Week: Domesticating Transcendence

For a number of years, I have been on the Worship Quote of the Week e-mailing list, and have found a lot of the quotes to be edifying and helpful.Does our knowledge of God (from His revelation of Himself in the Bible) properly shape our experiences of gathered Christian worship? Is it correct... (More)

Vacation Catch-up

Ah, it has been nearly a month since I posted anything. So here's a quick rundown. The boys and I went on vacation without Daddy. We drove to Philly, taking 7 hours, stopping every hour, once on the side of the road, once at a rest stop and three times at exits. If ever you need to stop on... (More)

Smiles! and More

It seems as if Noah is giving us real smiles now. He also is moving his hands and arms more purposefully. Noah really dislikes wet diapers. He seems like the perfect baby to start trying infant potty training with - now I just need to jump in and do it! (You can search for "elimination... (More)

Noah Activities, Similarities

Noah is a great sleeper and a great nurser. He will sleep 4-5 hours straight at the beginning of the night, and 2-3 hour segments during the day. This actually gives me time to play with Jonathan and get work done! He's also efficient at nursung and does not stay on as long as Jonathan did (or... (More)

Lacrosse, Forgetful, God, Rhymes

Jonathan seems to think that a baseball glove is for throwing the ball as well as catching it. I told him that if he wanted to throw a ball with a tool, he should get a lacrosse stick, it would work better than a glove. He then asked why a "cross like we have upstairs" (I think he was referring... (More)

The First Day By Ourselves

It started out beautifully. When Jonathan needed a morning diaper change, I put Noah in the carseat which was in the basement family room. He started fussing while I was still rinsing the diaper, so Jonathan went out and started singing quietly to him! When I got there, Jonathan was gently... (More)

Noah's Birth Story

Wednesday, June 28. 2:30am. My water broke! That was different. I woke Jon up with the news and he called the midwife while I went up to go to the bathroom and to wake up my parents. The midwife said it could be a long time before labor gets going after water breaking, but that we could... (More)

First Sailing Adventure, 2006

Sunday, May 21st, on the way home from church, we saw what a gorgeous day it was and we wanted to go for a sail. We ate a quick lunch and then I took a nap while Jon and Jonathan prepared a picnic dinner and got the boat ready. We were all ready at the same time, and we headed off to the river.... (More)

My Mother's Day

Saturday, Jon bought me a beautiful little azalea bush which we put in a big pot. Sunday morning, he served me breakfast in bed - pear slices arranged in a heart shape around scrambled eggs. After church, we generally relaxed and had time together. We made fondue for dinner. Jonathan did... (More)
