We ask if anybody has anything from the Lord. I explained earlier to the younger kids about the Star of Bethlehem (before the big kids got up). After the big kids came in, we passed out the first presents, and then I asked if anybody else had anything from the Lord that they wanted to share. All of the kids sat and waited while we talked and prayed. And then…
We are blessed with very patient children!
Do you make your kids wait to open presents like we do?








"Oh that God would give every mother a vision of the glory and splendor of the work that is given to her when a babe is placed in her bosom to be nursed and trained! Could she have but one glimpse in to the future of that life as it reaches on into eternity; could she look into its soul to see its possibilities; could she be made to understand her own personal responsibility for the training of this child, for the development of its life, and for its destiny,--she would see that in all God's world there is no other work so noble and so worthy of her best powers, and she would commit to no other's hands the sacred and holy trust given to her." -JR Miller







Wow, your children are SO patient! Loved watching your video and seeing your family:)
