Spiritual Up-Lift

I have never claimed (nor smugly considered myself) to be the only teacher/guider/authority/protector in the upbringing of my children.  I think anyone who thinks this is only fooling themselves. 

Our children (especially the teenagers) aren't fooled for a moment.

Here are a couple of articles I printed this morning to place on my oldest daughter's pillow: to read at leisure, to perhaps mention to me, to perhaps question me about months down the road, to perhaps discuss with me, and certainly to think about. 

2 Ways of Seeing Babies

Mothering, a Gift

Are They All Yours

Teenagers think about lots of things.  In a world that is otherwise vague and frivilous and unspiritual, it's good for us to place honorable, noble, spiritually up-lifting thoughts on their pillows and into their heads.

Thank you, Marjorie, Kim, and Danielle for helping me raise this young woman I am privileged to call "daughter". 

We'll allow the Holy Spirit to do the rest.
