We had a special time Tuesday afternoon at a Mother Daughter Tea. The coordinators had done an amazing job at making the time special. Everything was beautifully decorated. Sadly, we didn’t get a picture of all the pretty decorations, but you might get an idea of what the tables looked like by observing them in the background of a couple of the photos.
For the first session Mom gave Homeschooling with a Meek and Quiet Spirit, and then Sarah, Mom, and I gave Keepers at Home, a session we now have for young ladies. Because Mary was sick, she did not attend the tea, so we had to change our workshop around a little – giving Mom some of it.
We were encouraged to see so many mothers and daughters seeking to serve the Lord and their families from home. It seems so many have lost the vision of a woman staying at home and taking care of her family. I am ever so grateful to my mom for what she has invested in my life. I know that her staying home and not sending me to school has had an irreplaceable impact on my life, and I desire to keep that same vision. We want to encourage girls to have the vision to be keepers at home and to invest in their future families like their moms have invested in their lives. We are suggesting girls start to prepare for being a keeper at home some day where they are homeschooling their children and caring for their families. The Keepers at Home session grew from seeing that so many Christian young women have lost the vision of staying home and caring for a family.
“To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.†(Titus 2:5)

What a fun sounding day! I wish my Mom and I could have been there 🙂
How is Mary feeling?

Erin, we would have enjoyed you all being there too! Mary is doing quite well: still has a cold, but it’s not bad! We are so grateful! Sarah
The Mother/Daughter Tea sounds so nice–such a special time for moms and their girls. I’m sure your presentation touched many young ladies’ hearts too – – a much-needed message in “today’s world” of women leaving children in daycare while they’re working outside the home*sigh*. ~ Thanks for this update and pictures! 🙂
Hugs, Patti M.
I am just curious as to when some of these new sessions will be available for purchase. I would love to listen to them! 🙂

It always takes us a while to approve the recording and get it ready for copying. I’m sorry, I really don’t know at this point.

As a mother of six young men (and now a little girl too), I appreciate the fact that you are raising this standard for young ladies to aspire to. It is good to know that there are young ladies being taught God’s way. Though the Biblical message is not new, it does need to be proclaimed — it is the best way, designed by the Creator Himself!
