Five ingredients of a successful week….
1. Bible Study
I started my study of Ephesians this week. The boys got up early on Monday morning, so this was my view as I studied. You can join me in my Journey Through Ephesians. I created a frequently used word list that you can download too.
2. Towers and other Masterpieces
There were lots of building projects yesterday. Check out that tower!
And don't forget all the things you can make with triangles.
The master builder presents his creation.
3. Cuddles with Mommy
Cuddles on the couch…
And when Daddy is out late working, insist that you must cuddle and sleep in Mommy's bed.
4. Read Great Books
We finished reading the last of the 4 A. A. Milne books this afternoon. I didn't think Jonathan would care of the last two since they are poetry, but he really enjoyed them. Is there anything better than great read-alouds?
5. Do Something Crazy
No picture to share for this one, but I'm stepping out and doing something crazy. I'm announcing it so I have to finish it – how about that for accountability?
I've been writing a book about a depression based on my 31 Days to Finding Joy in Depression series. This is way out of my comfort zone, but God is calling me to share my story for three different types of people: those who are hiding from their depression, those who are trying to manage their depression, and those who want to understand and support a loved one with depression. My target release is the middle of March. I'm close to finishing my manuscript and about it to my proofer/editor friend Lisa who just launched her business, For the Love of Words.
Watch for more details coming soon!
