Christopher has gifted me with a subscription to The Family Handyman Magazine for a number of years. He knows that I’m always interested in learning better ways of creating and maintaining things around the home. If moms are looking for something very inexpensive and practical for your husband, you might consider gifting your husband with it. If you go to The Family Handyman’s website, a 1-year subscription is $10 or $15/2years.

We will have some ideas later from Titus2 for Father’s Day that will be a spiritual blessing to his heart.

“Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.”
Titus 2:6

Today we the people of the United States of America remember those who gave their lives defending our freedom. They gave the greatest gift they could give us—their own life. Freedom is not free.

As we reflect on that, may we also grieve for the state of our nation. Where right is considered wrong, and wrong proclaimed as right. “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” — Isaiah 5:20

May it be our hearts’ cry to share the gospel! “And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.” — Jude 1:22-23

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is
the power of God unto salvation to every one that
believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
Romans 1:16

Mother’s Day was a beautiful day of celebrating our mom! We had a different group “in-house,” missing Jesse on a trip, but we had the joy of Calia and Kyle with us since Joseph and Elissa were away.

We are so blessed to have a godly heritage. I believe as second generation Christians and homeschoolers, it’s easy to take for granted our blessings. I pray each one of you who has godly parents is grateful for that and expresses your love and honor to them.

Love,
Sarah

Sunday evening, we took a walk around the block, something we used to do on Sunday evenings before we switched around our schedule. We had kids on scooters, kids on foot, kids in stroller, and Baby in womb! Such sweet times!

“Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently,
lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen,
and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life:
but teach them thy sons, and thy sons’ sons.”
Deuteronomy 4:9
