It took me quite some time to decide what to write about for this chapter in Vicki Courtney’s 5 Conversations You Must Have with Your Daughter, and the introduction to conversation number 4: It’s OK to Dream About Marriage and Motherhood! Chapter 14, “The Anti-Marriage Agenda” listed all sorts of statistics and social thoughts about marriage and the state of marriage today. They were interesting, but not overly surprising. Less people get married today than they did 40 years ago, and they’re getting married much later in life than they did 40 years ago. I think that is obvious and I don’t need to rehash it all.

For those of you who took the time to respond to my Monday Morning Survey questions I and II, I just want to say thank you so much. Your answers were so thoughtfully presented. I REALLY enjoyed a different way to get to know some of you.
Pin ItWhen almost no one was around, he asked me if he could speak to me. With the way he’d eaten, I thought he was going to ask for some food to take home, and I was already doing a mental inventory of what I could give him.
Instead, he asked me if I could read a passage from the Bible for him. He looked around but saw no Bibles sitting out and said, “That is, if you can find one.”
I REALLY appreciate all of the amazing feedback I got from last week’s survey. I knew I had a diverse readership, so I wasn’t surprised so much about the differences of opinion as I was about how well thought out and presented the opinions were. THANK YOU. Please also consider answering this survey. I’m researching public opinion for a post I’m writing for April 1st at Seeds of Faith.
Here’s the menu for my family for the week of March 28th. As far as desserts go, we are traveling this weekend, so I’m going to make some cookies for the trip.
Pin ItWith hundreds of millions of years for constant mutations to build up and natural selection to occur, even the most ardent Darwinists should reasonably expect tremendous differences in the organism’s appearance by now.
Pin ItThere was a time in my life when I would have defined “your walk” specifically in terms of how you walk with God. As in, do you go to church? Do you give a tithe? Do you pray before meals?
I looked up the dictionary definition of “walk” in these terms and this is what I found: 8. to conduct oneself in a particular manner; pursue a particular course of life: to walk humbly with thy god.
