Endless Shrimp…

It started with an email from Red Lobster reminding me that it was Endless Shrimp season.

Then I remembered we had Darden gift cards.

And two daughters who LOVE shrimp.

And it was a plan…

Don’t worry – I didn’t actually ruin my appetite for shrimp with eating broccoli.

His Word for her…

Around our house we often say, “God’s Word is for you, too,” to a child who does not want to come and do devotion.  This gentle reminder has also turned into an admonition from one sibling to another at times.

Today – it was tangible for Johanna.  She was presented with a Bible from our church.
