Our kids need to know their story and the wonder of their heritage and all God has done in your family. Guess what mamas? They need you to tell them!
Are you a lovey-dovey wife? Many of us are not, but that doesn't mean we don't love our husbands or do all we can to make them feel special! If you fit that category, you'll love these ideas for how to show love and affection in your marriage and communicate in a way that makes your spouse feel adored.
I have always been a young mom.
Young in age and young at heart.
When I would plan birthday parties for my oldest child, I would plan them at a place where I could have fun too. As a young twenty-something mother, my bones and my back would still allow me to climb to the top of the play area and slide down with my preschooler in my lap.
Later, I was overjoyed when I discovered that my elementary-aged daughter could drink hot chocolate while I sipped coffee and together we poured over magazines in the Barnes and Noble Café.
When she graduated from the sixth grade and I served as a parent chaperone for the evening, I had a good time right along with her when she hit the dance floor. I thought the kids were laughing with me but maybe in retrospect they were laughing at me.
Young in age and young at heart, I prided myself on being the fun mom.
That was then.
This is now.
Helping your children to memorize scripture is a gift you can give your children that will yield blessing - both immediate and years to come. The discipline of scripture memory can build intellect, shape hearts, and clarify God's Word in the soul of your child. While many of us know to teach children John 3:16, the Lord's Prayer, and maybe even Psalm 23, scripture memory can be so much more. Children have a great capacity for memory work. Unlike adults, their minds are these wonderful blank maps in which loving believing parents can etch Biblical pathways that will yield blessings in the lives of their children for years to come.
Praying with your children is an important activity that families should prioritize but when many of us struggle to pray consistently on our own, teaching our children to pray may sometimes seem a bit of a daunting task.
But it doesn’t have to be!
