Scripture Power
Easter was awesome. We did a week of devotionals leading up to the holiday. It was an idea sent to me by my sister-in-law Tina. You start on Palm Sunday and then each night open an egg that has a scripture prophecy and reference about that week of Christ's life (along with a corresponding treat). We learned so much. It was wonderful!
It would lead to great discussions each night. I'd ask them questions and try to have them apply what they were reading, learning. I should have written it down that week, because I don't remember the details now :-(, but there were beautiful insights the kids made, right on their level of understanding that amazed me.
I want to hear about your successes and inspirational stories with reading and studying the scriptures.Come join in at Segullah.

Your family is looking great! I am glad we have blogs to keep up a little bit in our friends lives. Thanks also for the links to Segullah. I even commented this time but enjoy reading the different articles written by you and others.

Heather-
THANK YOU so much for offering your help. For now, I think we're doing okay. We should be living in student housing (my husband will be starting law school at Columbia) up in Morningside Heights. My big brother already lives in the city so he has given us all sorts of good advice. But, he's single and his idea of grocery shopping may differ from what I would like...so I might hit you up for ideas. I'll be job hunting once I arrive, so if you know of any openings in the fields of development or education, I would appreciate a heads up (although everybody is job hunting in this economy!). Anyway, thanks :) I hope we'll run into you once we arrive.

P.S. I loved the article in Segullah today.

You guys look amazing! And the kids get cuter and cuter all the time. Love you loads!

Cute pics and I never realized you chopped your hair off. l must say it looks fabulous. Well, I tried to call you back today but missed you and left a message. Will you be home May 30th-June 6th, I surely hope so because we are coming.
Hey guys, thought I'd let you know that we had some visitors the other day, Matt's "aunt" Amy and Mia from Red Cloud, NE! They came to pick up Shawn's art work to hang in her gallery during the city's annual festival of Willa Cather. They stayed and talked for a while. Mia is 14! It was great to visit. They are such warm, friendly great people. They invited us to visit them on our way back from UT this summer.
