One step at a time


Since I am back home , with great joy in my heart. I have made a goal to work on putting the house back in order.
First thing I did was straighten and clean the entrance way and dinning room..... it is the first thing I see when i walk in and it bring me great peace in knowing that it is in order....... then second thing was the living room.... dust , put things away, vacuum and water the plants that are screaming ... HELP ME!!!

Thirdly, I caught up on six loads of laundry....yes in one day i did this.....and lastly I cleaned my bed room.... it still needs attention in area's but it will have to do until another time.

Now I did not do all of this in one day ... that is something I would have done normally.... but I decided that I was not going to stress over things that will be here tomorrow..... ahhhhh it feels so go to be home

Trophy Children

What we want to do with our children, is not merely to control them and keep them in order-but to implant true principles deep in their hearts which shall rule their whole lives; to shape their character from within into Christ-like beauty, and to make of them noble men and women, strong for battle of life. They are to be trained rather than governed. Growth of character, not merely good behavior-is the object of all home governing and teaching. Therefore the home influence is far more important than the home laws; and the parents' lives are of more significance than their teachings. Whatever may be done in the way of governing, teaching or training-theories are not half as important as the parents' lives. They may teach the most beautiful things-but if the child does not see these things modeled in the life of the parent, he will not consider them important enough to be adopted in his own life.

It is from J. R. Miller's classic book, Home-Making, originally published in 1882:
