Guess Who's Guest Posting?!

Welcome

While you're here, check out some of my posts on topics such as marriage, child-training, hospitality, Homeschooling, and more!  I write to encourage (sometimes I receive more than I give:) a lot of times, actually! Thank you for all the outpouring of support and great ideas in the last couple of days about our upcoming trip to Washington, DC!  If you live in that area or have been there, I'd love more advice and tips!

Guest Posts

I am excited about the upcoming week(s) as I will be having some "guests" posting!!  One of them is my daughter, Kelsey, who, by the way, is turning 21 tomorrow!  She will be sharing some amazing teaching with you on subjects such as "Contentment," "Genuine Love," "The Awe Factor," "Choices," and more!  She shared these with some younger girls in a study about a year ago, but what she writes is amazingly applicable to all ages--wisdom beyond her years (from the Lord, no question)--I know you'll be blessed!


I'm also excited to have Sharon Kirby here on Monday from Sharon Sharing God, so be sure to come back Monday for that, and Kate from Thoughts on Dancing About Architecture will be sharing an easy recipe for Pasta Sauce here on Friday!  All of that is lined up for the coming weeks, and that is just the beginning, so come back and check it out!

Please Follow!

Meeting New Friends on Fridays

Fridays are wonderful for many reasons!  One of them is I get to meet new friends and gain new followers! If that sounds good to you, too, please join in!


I've made some friends who are gems through these bloghops!
And, I am joining a new one today, hosted by Nan, from Quality Time (you may also know her blog with great Thai Recipes: Healthy Choices Recipes
