21 Days of Prayer for Sons

For a mom, dad, grandparent, or care-giver of boys... This Book Study is for you!

Are you a mother of boys who often finds   herself wanting to waive the white flag in defeat?

* Do they drain you, overwhelm you, steal your heart, break your heart      and cause you more anxiety than you ever dreamed possible?

* Maybe you only have one boy amongst a sea of estrogen and you just can’t figure out how to respond to him in a way that affirms all that is good about his masculinity.


You’re not alone!

There are so many books out there today on the topic of parenting boys that I can’t count them. Nor do I have time to read them all. But even if I did, reading these books and putting the solid tools in them to work still doesn’t come with guarantees.
Knowing this, it becomes quite clear that there is only one thing we can do…
Plead with God.
Pray.
“The fervent prayers of a righteous man avails much.” James 5:17.
It’s our hope.

We are just plain... crazy!!

Ok.. I will be the first to admit it...

We ARE crazy.
 Our family has so much fun together... it is not even funny.... but it is!
Sometimes, when I look back on a day, or a week, I just smile and laugh at the things we all say and do... together.

It is just the way we are.  Good, wholesome.... FUN!
It certainly does help that my husband has a great sense of humor, and our oldest and youngest daughters have inherited this from him!

Not to mention... my 2nd son, has this incredible ability to make me laugh...over just about nothing.  Sometimes, his looking at me will make me break out in hysterical laughter.

Spending time together as a family is not a hardship for us..

We do not need money or entertainment to keep things moving in a positive direction in this household.
Our evenings are usually spent gathered in the living room, with the younger "crew" tucked in bed, and the oldest children, along with their dad and I... talking,,, and talking,,, and laughing!
Usually laughing.
If you were to ask me the next day what we were up late talking and sharing, about... I probably would not remember... the days and nights run together.
But, I will tell you this...

When a day goes by that we are not gathered together.... talking and laughing... it is like a BIG hole in our week.  And I will never take my family time for granted.

Here are a handful of pictures that epict the laughter we share!



On vacation.. Ben falling asleep in van..near Sarah...

My fun family.
