Hope reigns when your prayers are answered
When you child is heartbroken, you ache. As a mom, it really actually hurts to watch your child sad or in pain. I guess that is all just part of being mom.
But, my friends, when those dark clouds begin to part and your child’s smile peeks out of the gloom, your mom-world opens wide. The sun streams in and all those prayers and sleepless nights pay off.
A smile! Where will it go from here? Only God knows, but you can sure hope and pray. Lots of praying.
Hope reigns when your child smiles.
And that sums up our week!
Books I am reading these days
I read for fun, but also to try to keep up with what my kids are learning. This last part feels like a race I can never win sometimes, but I suppose trying is what being a homeschool mom is mostly all about.
- A. A. Milne’s The Red House Mystery – A fantastic book for adults by the author of the Willie the Pooh stories.
- Julianna Deering’s Dressed for Death – I love the Drew Farthering Mysteries and discovered this in a local used book store.
- Ward Farnsworth’s Classical English Rhetoric – I am trying to get ahead of the curve before we start the new school year in the fall.
- Kurt Schlichter’s Indian Country – Wow what a story. I love the protagonist. Why is his left hand up? Well, you just have to read it yourself to find out!
A Song That Really Sums Up The Past Week. Yes, Hope Reigns!
