  3. Kristin, I think that is a fabulous idea about telling them there is no santa. My kids both just figured out there was no tooth fairy, and they did not go into convulsions or break out in some rash--they are perfectly fine with it. I think your last comment needs to try to focus on what Christmas is TRULY about, and not on what the world tells us to believe. Love ya, girl!

  17. thanks jeanna, you made me laugh (i guess because i'm crazy). when did motherhood stop being a real job? hey dennis, do you have a real job, or are you a stay-at-home-slacker like me and kristan? i guess the years we worked at real jobs in real offices and real classrooms before we indentured ourselves to homemaking (far more complex than housekeeping) and full-time mothering don't count for anything. that must be why we had kids! we were too thin-skinned for real jobs! does anyone else think that's just funny?

  18. I have often wondered if my being a stay at home mom was considered being lazy. I can honestly say it is the hardest job I have ever had. I would so much rather go back to teaching full time and working as a caterer full time in the evenings (or what ever combination of jobs I've had)-- working 2 jobs at a time and doing a great job I might add is much easier and more immediately rewarding than being a mom [I have always had 2 jobs at a time except when I was in school I only had time for one]. I am much more mature in knowing that the immediate gratification is not always the most rewarding gratification. I get to teach my children and be there every minute of their day. Besides that, God rewards so much better than man could ever reward. I will do His will not my own. Thus the scripture, Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

    I am glad you are not ashamed to post your name. Not that I know you-- which makes me wonder why the other unnamed anons are afraid to post their names. Are you afraid I know you? If I do, apparently you don't know me well because a lot of people I love disagree with me and I don't stop caring about them or I don't disown them for disagreeing with me. They are not afraid to openly tell me they disagree. Life is full of opinions, you and every anon are completely entitled to your own opinions. God granted us free will for this reason. He also tells me not to judge and that the measure I use to judge them will be used to judge me. I don’t want anything as small as a human measure used to judge me. I would fail miserably. I am the worst of all sinners and I want God’s mercy to judge me not man’s opinions of me or my own opinions of me.

    I respect Jeanna for not being ashamed to use her name. I just wonder what exactly she thinks is CRAZY? I know I am, but what evidence is there in my posting of sweet pictures of my babies, stories of my life, prayers to my God, and my thoughts about the Bible that lead you to know how crazy I am? :)


    I imagine Jeanna is not a Christian so I can not and will not judge her words, I just hope she keeps reading my blog and maybe will learn what being a Christian is all about. I can honestly say having a relationship with Christ is the most important thing in my life and I cherish it more than anything else.
