Wife of one handsome hunk, homeschooling mom of three boys, foster mom, daughter of God. Over the past 7 years, we've learned to love our foster children deeply, yet hold them loosely. I share with you my heart in these brief chronicles of our family life.

Marriage discussion
Discussing the servant's search for Isaac's wife in Genesis.
Josiah: Why did they need to find a wife that was a relative of Abraham.
Me: So they would know that she loves God. You will also need to pray for a wife who loves God if you get married one day.
Josiah: I don't think I'll remember that from right now. It's so far away. Maybe 10 years?
Me: Don't worry. We'll talk about it a lot. I will definitely talk about it with you a lot over the years. Well, you will start to like girls maybe in 10 years.
Josiah: I already like girls.
Me: Well, I mean in a different way. Not just as friends.
Josiah: How?
Me: Like you will start thinking about falling in love and getting married. Not just a regular friendship.
(Don't want to delve into that topic yet. It's so sweet that everyone is just a friend now. Ah, precious childhood.)
