Happy New Year!

  • The condensed report of our four day week: Troy fought with the culture to try and get a truck back in working order for a Mamba delivery to happen ... the kids played and fought with each other a lot ... Tara helped with Women's Program and fought with her leg.
  • We have friends coming over to celebrate later tonight - fun!
  • We're all wound up REEEALLY tight - waiting for Britt and Chris to get here tomorrow. (Then we go on our little Christmas gift overnight trip together.)
  • We're excited that the Heartline Runners have reached their goal of 60K - and have even exceeded it thanks to the generosity of many.Thank you to each of you that chipped-in!
  • Welcome 2010 ... May we make it our goal to: Strive for growth, follow in obedience, lead with courage, live with integrity, cherish our families, and love God in the year ahead.
  • A New Year's Day gift for you - The boys sharing their new-found skills

My kids are toilet cleaning freaks, and I have to actually forbid them from using up all the cleaner. I am raising the oddest children. I also used DENTAL FLOSS as the reward for Greyson when he would potty on the big boy chair as a toddler...seriously...I heard others using m&ms, but no...not for my weird kids..FLOSS. He would tremble at the thought of getting a long piece and just flossing away. WEIRD. Sounds like your boys are enjoying their new chores! *grin*
