"The fundamental mission of motherhood now is the same as it always was: to nurture, protect, and instruct children, to create a home environment that enables them to learn and grow, to help them develop a heart for God and his purposes, and to send them out into the world prepared to live both fully and meaningfully."

-Sally Clarkson from the Mission of Motherhood

Independence Day

The Fourth of July is one of my favorite holidays.  I get so verklempt when we sing patriotic songs and put our hands over our hearts.  We are so blessed to live in this wonderful country!  I love the U.S.A.!! 
88 years between 'em
Freedom to love

Freedom to worship

Freedom to rock your first bathing suit
Freedom to give kisses

Freedom to smile...or not.

Freedom to clown around

Freedom to shoot bottle rockets...um, I think?

Freedom to play

Freedom to celebrate Papa's birthday
Freedom to cook and eat

Freedom to sing!
