I'm following up...<BR/>Just to share: I love the last paragraph of this blog entry. Every night I cuddle with my boys for a few minutes and make sure to talk over the day and tell them how special they are. I'm always amazed at how they open up when the lights go out! Sometimes, I'm rushed, or tempted to do a quick tuck in. But your words have given me encouragement to continue this little ritual. Thank you!<BR/>LauraLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08263995875732832349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2832860740344359320.post-33438612286276020712007-11-28T13:23:00.000-05:002007-11-28T13:23:00.000-05:00Hi Van,Thank you for your encouraging comment on m...Hi Van,<BR/>Thank you for your encouraging comment on my blog, I will do that. :) I loved what you wrote on this post: "Jesus RAISES my status. He invites me to live as if I were royalty. I am a child of God, so why not live as if I were a princess." That is awesome!! I'm passing that on to both my 17 & 6 year old daughters when I see them this afternoon. <BR/>Nice to "meet" you. :) <BR/>Blessings~<BR/>Lelia ChealeyLelia Chealeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13173827811277833243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2832860740344359320.post-63982396779116664062007-11-28T06:05:00.000-05:002007-11-28T06:05:00.000-05:00Hi, Van! Your words have inspired me. My husband...Hi, Van! Your words have inspired me. My husband and I have decided to forgo shopping for one another this year. We are trying to think of something special we can do that will bring us closer in place of gifting this year. See how you have already given me a gift through your not shopping? I feel closer to my husband already, just by meditating on alternatives. Does anyone have any ideas as to what we can do to celebrate instead of exchanging gifts? I would love ideas!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08263995875732832349noreply@blogger.com
