Oliver

***

I know it's dangerous, and he did get into trouble.

(This is his second offence.)

But, I really can't blame him. It does look warm and cozy. :)

It looks like we did not make parole!

She too has the flu.

Our Snow Day

***

Four sick children kept us inside during our *mini southern blizzard*.

So, we had to make our own snow. ;)

Thought Of The Day

We are under house arrest. The flu has come for a visit, which is

giving us plenty of down time. After tending to the patient, I looked around on the computer for a while. I found this quote by John MacArthur.

One way to provoke you child: CRITICIZE OTHERS OPENLY; CRITICIZE OTHERS ROUTINELY SO THAT YOU CHILD WILL CONTINUE TO REALIZE THAT HE IS BETTER THAN EVERYBODY ELSE.

One more thing I need to work on.

Winter Sunning

The winter blues set in early around here, so I decided we needed a plan of action. Every time the sun shines, we are heading out! We made some rice crispy treats and headed to the park. We were all in much better moods when we came home. We now have a little *Spring* in our steps.

A New Year

It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.

They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
