beauty
in others.

faults I have been hiding in the secret corners of my heart.

purchase eternal happiness for myself and all others in need of love.
Saturday - Cooking Day: Help me, my Savior, to brew a big kettle of
brotherly love and serve it with clean, sweet bread of human kindness.
Sunday - The Lord's Day: O God, I have prepared my house for you. Please
come into my heart as my honored guest so I may spend the day and the
rest of my life in your presence.

You've turned into a Mom when.....
You've Turned Into A Mom When:
You automatically double-knot everything you tie.
You find yourself humming the Barney song as you do
the dishes.
You hear a baby cry in the grocery store, and you start
to gently sway back and forth, back and forth. However,
your children are at school!
You actually start to like the smell of strained carrots
mixed with applesauce.
You weep through the scene in Dumbo when his mom
is taken away, not to mention what Bambi does to you.
You get soooo into crafts you contemplate writing a book
called 101 Fun Crafts to do with Dryer Lint and Eggshells.
You spend a half hour searching for your sunglasses only
to have your teenager say, "Mom, why don't you wear the
ones you pushed up on your head?"
You are out for a nice romantic meal with your husband,
enjoying some real adult conversation, when suddenly
you realize that you've reached over and started to cut up
his steak!
