Thank you.<BR/><BR/>Mom: I might stick your Thursday Thirteen list in the treasure box as well!<BR/><BR/>Neesie: Thank you for your encouragement. The way Lena already follows you with worshipful eyes is definitely going to mean that she will look up to YOU.<BR/><BR/>Jamie: what a wonderful tip ... thank you so much for sharing it with us! I definitely am going to use your idea. <BR/><BR/>Elise: Yes, friend (lump in throat). I'm sure you feel the same way about your precious ones.<BR/><BR/>Dani: thank you so much.

Here is an interesting idea for Bible memorization. Since Cosette was old enough to copy hand motions (about 14-15 months?) we've been 'learning' Bible verses with her. I say the verse, and Cosette has specific hand motions that go with it. Even when she was little, she could always get the right motions. Now that she is starting to talk a good bit more, she often knows the words that go with these verses as well, just from us repeating them over and over. So, all that to say that you can start memorizing with them even before they can talk :)Cosettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996400452391548379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32466359.post-9341358130988020062007-03-29T19:09:00.000-07:002007-03-29T19:09:00.000-07:00Yes...it is sad to see her growing up so! Part of ...Yes...it is sad to see her growing up so! Part of me wants her to stay that quiet little baby, but then the other part of me can't wait for her to grow up so that we can have dress up time, tea parties, baking time etc. You're doing a good job raising her so far and I am sure you will continue to do so in the future. Being my big sister you were and still are a wonderful, Godly example to me and I will always try to follow in your steps. Hopefully watching you raise your little princess will give me some good tips if God blesses me with children of my own oneday!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32466359.post-31443797489962611282007-03-29T18:44:00.000-07:002007-03-29T18:44:00.000-07:00Oh, I forgot to say something else.

It doesn't seem that long ago that we went up north to visit her for the very first time... and look at her now!<BR/><BR/>I think your Family Treasure Box is SUCH a wonderful idea.<BR/>And that poem is very, very special.<BR/><BR/>Uncle Mark and I pray that Lena will come to know Jesus as her Savior when she is still very young, and that He will bless and guide her throughout her life. We love you all and are so thankful for you!Bekahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11885742185596004004noreply@blogger.com
