We call it monkey bread

I have been wanting the recipe for ages now. I finally got it. The recipe/intructions on how to make money bread...pull apart bread.....what ever it is called i got it and made it. It didnt' last more then an hour in my house I made it at lunch time for the boys trying to save some for Hubby when he came home.

No such luck the kiddos gobbled it right up. The second batch was made for after dinner time, it hit everyones lips at about the time I hade the dinner cooking in the oven, it didnt last then either, so I know it was a success.

It however will now become a traditional eatery for Holidays or requests.

I am backed up until Christmas time......I am glad it is easy and way way cheap to make.



UPDATE: The Hubby came back from the doctor with no problems, God has healed him.

Whats your character?

Here is the definition of our Character's.

We do have this in our house, was on the fridge but once removed to avoid finger prints and the riped. It is very important in our home to have a character that is pleasing to God.

Though we are all NOT perfect, and we have our moments we are sure to ask for forgivness.

I know today is a short post but I have some praying to do the Hubby has a doc. appointment.

Be back with a full report tomarrow!

You know its Monday when............

"Ring, Ring" at a bright and early time this morning (6:13)the phone rang, I was in la la land but once I heard the phone ring I jumped about 12 inches and it was my sister. I received a wonderful "Good Morning Sister", then before a word hit my lips to reply back I felt it......the pounding of a morning headache. The first thing I said was "Please Lord take it away".

With our conversation in heave, we talked until my poor old phone started to die. Charged that baby up read my bible and devotionals and prayed sat here at the computer thinking to myself.
"It's Monday.........laundry, room cleaning, chores, chores, chores.

Monday is my first day of every week I have a hard kick start in the morning, but once I am out of that mode there is no stopping me.

Isn't it wonderful to know that when you call out the name of God he is there? I will admit that there are time's I talk to the Father as if he is sitting on my kitchen stool with me enjoying the day. i do however get the "Mom who are you talking too" question, but I earnestly reply..."Jesus".

There is no one else better to talk to the Father. For some reason my day goes by smoother, and more pleasant, so in ending this post for today, I have some chores and tea time with the Father sometime today...would you care to join?

Did I mention I am a teacher

Thats right, I am a Sunday school teacher...a fun one I might add!!!

Everyone I wish you all a wonderful Monday!

Simple Pleasures....and I mean Simple

I have said this many times before that I lead a simple and satisfying life. I am a woman of simple pleasures, if asked to choose between a diamond something or a household item......... all I have to say is make it a Kenmore.... a Bissel.....or anything red..so basically the household item. I get my thrill to go to Wal-mart and look at the new dishes and bowls and thing for the house.

So last night when my Aidan was at church sitting next to me, his simple little prayer was nothing at all for a selfish gain...he didn't pray for money, or a toy and anything.
His prayer was simple and from the heart......all he asked was for God to help him to be a good boy and to help him not to disobey his parents.....along with he asked God to protect his people, and he told God he loved him with all his heart.

It was Simple.....Loving....for for me satisfying, because when you hear that, you know as parents we are doing something right.
With requests like that it also shows that he is listening to the sermon and in Sunday school.

My boy was caught.......Barbie and all.

Lately we have been having my niece Christina come over and she loves to play and the boys love to play along with her, I am not to sure how this came about, maybe she just got tired of playing with the boys toys and wanted them to do things her way......that's my girl.....

So after realizing it is pretty quite no yelling or some one running in to tell on the other and I have my camera close by..just in case and I happen to fall upon this

Both of my boys sitting nicely in the living room playing what else Barbies! Now for a nano second I was concerned, then I thought why...I am not going to be one of those mothers who doesn't let them play with dolls and such.....So there you have it both of my boys sitting there with their cousin enjoy a nice beauty shop hour with Barbie.....let me just add that at this point I have never seen them play so nicely with each other. If this is what it takes to have play together and get along I will be happy to buy each of them their own Barbies!!!

The first of Many

We had a visitor last week............

The "Tooth Fairy" made her appearance...saw one look at Aidans tooth , loved it , took it and let him a couple bucks and a toy in place of it.


He handled it like a true champ............after it was out and he was crying/screaming/laughing, he was just as much a ball of emotionals as his mother was that day......because it now makes it official...........he's really growing up!!!!
