My friend, Sheri, said something insightfully funny about stay home moms today:
We “punch in the clock” when that baby is born
and we never “punch out”.
hahahaa…. so very true…~~..~~..~~..~~..~~..~~..~~..~~..~~..~~
So my two younger girls got baptized yesterday. What a blessing!!!!!!

My husband charged them with being humble in their walk as they are encouraged and admonished by the body of believers in their life.

It
almost reminded me of a wedding, where those in attendance…
…are asked to
help keep the couple accountable to their vows. In the same way, as my children declare, “Jesus as Lord!”, asking those in attendance to help keep them accountable
and for our girls to respond humbly to that.

Here the girls are trying to catch raindrops!
And here’s one with Daddy, the night he arrived. They are both wearing “Dad” shirts. Gracie’s says, “I heart Dad” and Julie’s says, “Daddy’s Girl”.
Have a great week.

Congratulations to the girls, you and the whole family! It’s a real time to celebrate a huge milestone in your daughter’s walk with the Lord. May they continue to be close to God, listen for Him and obey Him!
Praise the Lord for their public profession of faith!
Getting baptised is so joyous. A wonderful statement. I always enjoy the pictures of your family. Is school going to start soon for the girls? It’s hard to believe that vacation is almost over.
I remember going to a beautiful baptisimal service when we were in CA and the service was held at a lake just below Yosemite.
HUGS and Prayers always,
Fran
Neat and special to see those of your girls and Steve baptizing them. I pray God’s continued working in their hearts and lives. And guidance for you as their parents.
blessings,

No…you never “punch out” from being a mom. Even after they get married, they will be your “little girls”…

A pastor we had believed that children are the disciples of their parents, so I got to baptize my two children. It was wonderful!
