Psalm 127:3-5

Sons are a heritage from the Lord, children a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one's youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their enemies in the gate.

Psalm 127:3-5
Dean and Dawn proud parents of these blessings:

Mackenzie Jo 19, Carter Dean 15, Reegan Marie 12, Cael Charles 11, Quincy Everett 9, Addelynn Ruth 7, Cade Joseph 5, Kyler Erwin 4, and Jaycie LeeAnn 2

Impromptu School

Last night Dean, myself, and some of our children and even a neighbor child were working on the new patio. We were placing broken granite pieces upside down. I picked one up and said; "wow this looks like Illinois." That is all it took, the children went in and got a map of the USA and started searching for all the states. They really found a lot of broken granite pieces that looked like states. Too bad we could not have thought to make a section look like the USA we could have done geography each time we sat out there.

  1. I love this! Natural learning at its best! It would be a great idea to make the USA map out of the granite pieces--great thought. Some of my best thoughts also come in hindsight ;)
