Purpose

We're still here, and we're still teaching the cutie pants 2 year old to potty in the toilet. It's going quite well, despite the fact that we've had at least 1 accident a day. (I won't give you the gory details.) It's amazing how time consuming it can be to make sure DD1 doesn't mess her pants. Today has been great though; no accidents, and we even made a trip to the library with panties on!

Last Sunday in church we sang the song that is really the purpose behind this blog. I thought I'd share the words. :)

Home can be a Heaven on earth when we are filled with love,
bringing happiness and joy, rich blessings from above.
Warmth and kindness, charity. Safety and security.
Making home a part of Heaven, where we want to be.

Drawing family near each week we'll keep love burning bright.
Serving Him with cheerful hearts, we'll grow in truth and light.
Parents teach and lead the way, children honor and obey
Reaching for our home in heaven, where we want to stay.

Praying daily in our home, we'll feel his love divine.
Searching scriptures faithfully, we'll nourish heart and mind.
Singing hymns of thanks, we'll say, "Father, help us find the way.
Leading to our home in heaven, where we long to stay."
