Lent has begun, so I've put up some pictures on our bulletin board for the boys (and Daren and I) to look at, and ready our hearts for Easter. I've also put out 7 candles representing the 7 weeks leading up to Christ's death and resurrection. Last night at dinner we started out with all 7 candles aflame. We will blow one out each week until they're all extinguished. Then we'll relight them on Easter Sunday to celebrate Christ rising again.
One day Abishai wanted to know the names of the men that Jesus was having supper with. Since there are only 7 disciples in the picture, we named 7 out of the 12. He almost has them memorized.
Abishai set up his bathroom stool to get a closer look.
I would love to talk to you sometime about other ways you incorporate Jesus into your family life. I feel like we are not very creative and probably lacking in most ways. We pray, sing songs, read books, and talk about Jesus when it is relevant but otherwise we are not that creative. Maybe one day we can have a visit and chat.
ReplyDeleteYes, we should plan to get together sometime, I'd love to have a visit with you. Sounds like you have some good habits in place already; prayer, singing, books. Good for you!
