Life at Happy Home … never a dull moment

When God is doing so many deep things in our hearts, I find the biggest challenge is to be faithful in daily things of life, maybe because the enemy knows that this is where true revival must first be manifested.Â WhenÂ God is working to teach us how to have a broken heart so that His love can flow through us into the lives of others,Â the biggest challenge is to be patient and loving with those closest to us.Â This morning it is my lively, creative children.Â :)Â Our girls seem to have an uncanny drive towards creativity.Â Perhaps most mothers would curtail those tendencies more and find themselves free from little pieces of paper, markers, glue, pencils, scissors, stickers, and a variety of little crude gifts pressed into their hands all day long.Â I prefer the mess, especially when I see the joy it gives my little ones to make something for someone.Â I have been amazed what all sorts of creativity can come out of even a two-year-old.Â All the clean-up times are worth it for the satisfaction I see on my 7-yr.old’s face when she can hand her favorite aunt a carefully crocheted scarf that she made.Â No, I wouldn’t trade them in the least.Â Certainly, these little ones do lead us in our walk with God, too.Â One day when I was feeling especially vulnerable, I was kind of lost in thought, but I heard Jaime calling my name.Â I answered her a little absentmindedly, but my heart melted when she said, “You are my best Mama!Â That’s all I wanted.”Â Â Â Her prayers are so sweet, too, and you never know quite what to expect.Â :)Â She often prays, “Dear Jesus, please … do all Your work in us!”Â It’s amazing what little ones pick up.Â This morning she was telling me how she fixed up a little place “where I can go in and pray.”Â

And now for some pics of my calm, sweet, ‘wait-til-you-have-boys’ kind of girls.Â Â Hmmm…

And some days I am thinking having had a girl would have been better?
My boy is just as creative! I have a covered ceramic dish that I have been sticking little treasures into and now it is full and the treasures and notes still keep coming. Maybe he and I will have to sort through it and only keep what we both like so there is room for more!

Blessings as you raise your girlies for Him!

I love to see pics of your family! I think messes like that are worthwhile as well. Some people would probably have a fit if they would see my house sometimes. But it’s always cleanable. I would still like your email adress so if you want to email me with it that’s fine. Do you still have my address? Thanks! Love you, Liz

Hello dear heart! It’s been a long time, but I haven’t forgotten you. It’s wonderful to see these pictures! Your girls are beautiful just like their Momma. (both in heart and body) I truly look forward to messes with my own children. I recently did an extremely fun activity with some friends. We brought out shaving cream and gave each child a pile to play with…almost like working with finger paint. Eventually it endsup on everyone, but it was fun to see their reaction to the texture and joy of creating with it. Anyway, love you all tons!
