Auds: Hi JohannaThis is awesome and I hope to make real use of it and promote it as well. I had a great morning yesterday out at Rolleston MOPS. I was told to take my teddy and what fun the kids had with a full on teddy bear morning. Bears were in cardboard box races and shared in block building. There were litlle tea parties. Children helped make fairy bread for the morning tea picnic that was outside. Teddy bears went out as well for a run and rolls down small hills. Loads of fun! Great work Rollest

Jo Wall: Keep up the good work Johanna. Thought I'd share my blog here today too.New gameBeky and I came up with a variation on hide and seek last night - probably not that original just spotlight inside. We had a great time hiding with all the lights off and finding each other with a torch. Beky decided she needed a torch with her to find her hiding spots. Only catch my usual variation to hide and seek (reading a magazine) didn’t work so well.

Angie: Hiya, Just blog hopping and thought I'd stop by and say Hi. Great Blog! ~ Angie

Things change ... and stay the same

Daylight savings has just finished - with the accompnying confusion over the children's bedtime [their confusion, not ours]. "Honey, you know you go to bed when I say - not when you want to".

I'm flexible for a week or so but it is hard work adjusting for everyone. I now wake up at 4.30am instead of 5.30am - like the latter wasn't early enough already! Oh! the mother's lot!

You may be in the middle of feeding through the nights; broken sleeps; and trying to communicate with this gorgeous little being, making do with various sounds and facials. I'm past that tiny baby stage, but my lot are into feeding endlessly through the day; broken sleeps (due to bad dreams etc); and making a variety of grumps and other noises, which I'm left trying to determine the meanings of.

You have heard it said that: Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and for ever. That's still true - though I find the way He reveals Himself is fresh - each day.

What are you expecting of God today? this week?
What are you asking Him for - for this season of Life?

Blessings on you (and your marriage),

Johanna
