Wow, things have been busy and I have been trying really hard not to spend too much time on the computer lately.  So, I was way behind in reading my friends blogs and after several pages, I decided I would just have to live without knowing what everybody posted for the last several days or so.  I just don't have the time to catch up with everybody, as much as I would like to.  I am not babysitting the baby anymore which is freeing up my day quite a bit, I am thankful for that but also thankful I could help out a friend when she needed it.  The boys have been doing great with keeping up with their basic school.  Today we went to town to get some fruit and things and I let the two littles take some of their birthday money to buy something.  They had gotten more money than gifts this time, so dh and I decided they could take some and go buy something.  Well they did each get something but also gave some money to their brothers so they could each get something  That makes a momma happy!  We have still been working on character training and using a chart and reward system, it seems to be helping. 

I was thinking about this blog lately and how I don't feel as if I have been posting as much as I used to and when I do post, it seems to be just rambling.  Hmmm, I may have to make a more concentrated effort to actually post something worth reading .

I better get.  We are having chicken ranch salad for dinner tonight with a side of broccoli/cauliflower/tomato salad that is just to die for!  If my wonderful sweet friend that gave me this recipe gives me the okay, I will post the recipe for you sometime.  Even my ds10 loves it!  So, I gotta go get the chicken thawed and wash up the dishes I haven't gotten to yet.  I know flylady says to go to bed with a shiny sink but I would rather leave them in the sink after dinner and spend some time with my hubby and wash the dishes in the morning when he is at work.

Blessings,

Rashel

From you... I know for our family training our little ones to walk in the Lord is our first and most important concern. It is a challenge and we must constantly avoid the temptation to get busy with things that don't have an eternal value. Life has so many distractions that it can throw at us but when we focus on training our little ones in His ways.. then we find peace and Joy in our homes!! He is faithful to lead each of us perfectly in how to train these little ones for Him! With much love, Mrs. Joseph Wood

**You are so right and I have been trying very hard lately not to let the little things distract me from what is my most important job, my family. Thank you!
Blessings,
Rashel
