Recent Reads

My recent reads as I continually work on providing a home of love and harmony. I adore how the tv is off and we are reading, reading..reading :)

30 Very Veggie Devotions about Kindness:  Love it, simple and meaningful. The kids are enjoying it. We read it every night, only takes a few minutes to make a valuable point.

Making Brothers and Sisters Bestfriends:  So far so good, thought later we'd read and discuss as a family. Very biblically based, some good points. I like how its written by siblings. 

A Sane Womans Guide to Raising a Large Family:  Great, for the new Mom of 1 or the seasoned Mom of 10. Offers some good advice, and websites.
