Abortion stops a beating heart.

Sunday

Monday, May 19, 2008 9:11 AM

In the middle of the sermon yesterday, L3 rubbed his eye and got his top eyelashes stuck underneath his eyelid. Hello for a commotion with me trying to get his lashes free. We sit near the front, so dear knows what everyone was thinking I was doing to him. He also had a choke fest on his cup of water. I keep forgetting to teach C6 that you don’t turn around to look at the people behind you. And how many times should a child be allowed to ask, “Is it almost over?”

The sermon text scripture included the tag-line to my site, “That the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God.” Romans 8:21 The responsive reading included one of my favorite verses, “He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.” Psalm 145:19

Grammie made a nice chicken dinner for all of us after church.

Then we went up the river to pick fiddleheads. Unfortunately, it was the beginning of the season, so there weren’t very many around. We did get enough for about four meals or more.


Fiddlehead picking in NB
Kind of dreary, huh.
You just wait, it will soon be the most beautiful place on earth.


Here are my and C6’s rubber boots.
Is that mud on our jeans?

    It’s hard to sit through a service sometimes for little ones.We teach this is the Lords Day and we must respect others and the Pastor speaking.. that glorifys God. They no longer ask that question. we also have them take notes. i have a print out page with a place for notes a picture of the sermon, scripyure spot etc… I keep it in a binder and it really helps to stay focused and helps make the time go by in a respectable manner. It works for us. Hugs,

    MIca P.s What is fiddleheads?

    Sounds like you have a good plan. I thought I did, too, and that week was slightly unusual for some reason. My 6yo doesn’t usually ask “When is it over”, and my 3yo hasn’t started that yet. But you are right about the “We teach…” I knew I was lacking, and I wrote in the original post, ” I keep forgetting to teach…” Preparation and prevention are key. And it helps if the service is not extremely boring. ;-)

    Fiddleheads are little green ferns that you pick when they are still curled and boil them as a vegetable. They are native to our area.
