I'm excited to get to do all that too, even if it means scrubbing out poop. =)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8145150938922509338.post-87169520829029690842008-05-04T00:14:00.000-07:002008-05-04T00:14:00.000-07:00Yes, it IS nice when what you want to do, and bein...Yes, it IS nice when what you want to do, and being good happen to be the same thing!

Your sweet brother's thoughts are profound, and so true. <BR/><BR/>I'm sorry Elizabeth is being such a pill. Remember that she is basically a sweet, good natured little girl, and she will be again. This too shall pass.<BR/><BR/>Love, KatheyKatheyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12415822375877762820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8145150938922509338.post-70275407490500320462008-05-03T17:27:00.000-07:002008-05-03T17:27:00.000-07:00I've probably shared this before, but I had one in...I've probably shared this before, but I had one inspirational thought about caring for infants. When I was taking care of baby Daniel, it suddenly struck me that I was "feeding the hungry and clothing the naked," the things that Christ says qualify you to get into heaven. When I was younger I had often thought that I would never have the opportunity to do those things. <BR/>When you're caring for a baby, it's very unselfish. The baby can't return any favors. You know it, and don't care. You're saving the kid's life, day in and day out, because it's what you want to do. And it's nice when what you want to do and being good happen to be the same thing.<BR/> <BR/>DouglasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8145150938922509338.post-51574788039686986902008-05-03T13:11:00.000-07:002008-05-03T13:11:00.000-07:00Oh my.

I'm glad you've got a washer and dryer.Helenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11584075071891748174noreply@blogger.com
