		<description>I pray regularly that they all would, indeed, find godly men when they grow up!

&lt;blockquote&gt; Someday those moments will be for an eternity.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Amen, Don!</description>

		<description>Beautifully written moment captured with a daughter. They are special aren&#039;t they? And yet I couldn&#039;t help but wonder if changes much in adulthood. These daughters grow up and marry guys like us, and yet it seems we are still only capturing moments with these special creatures. Someday those moments will be for an eternity.</description>

		<description>Hi Rachael! Can&#039;t wait to meet the new little one! I wish I had the time to put together a matrix of homeschooling curriculum, but thankfully we found a fantastic book that did it for us. It&#039;s called &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/100-Top-Picks-Homeschool-Curriculum/dp/0805431381/ref=sr_1_14?s=books&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1278582130&amp;sr=1-14&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;100 Top Picks for Homeschool Curriculum: Choosing the Right Educational Philosophy for Your Child&#039;s Learning Style&lt;/a&gt; by Cathy Duffy. I&#039;d be happy to bring it to church this weekend if you want to borrow it.</description>

		<description>Hi Adam!

I do love your website- thoroughly impressed and intimidated all at the same time!!

I know you mentioned once that you did a review/matrix of homeschool curriculum on your site . . . and now I can&#039;t find it!  Can you point me in the right direction? 

Thanks!

		<description>Z: &quot;Daddy I love your funny jokes and videos and I love you so much and you&#039;re very handsome.  Love Z&quot;

R: &quot;Daddy you are so funny doing those videos.  I think Myra was checking to see if she had pants on not pull-ups.  I love you.&quot;

Mommy:  &quot;Whoa swinging videos make me feel nauseated and the creepy squeaking was painful, but the kids are CUTE and our Daddy is Funny!&quot;</description>

		<description>You know, I have no idea. I think maybe she was double-checking that she had put shorts on under her dress before attempting to slide down. She hasn&#039;t worn pullups or a diaper (besides sleeping) for a long time! (Yay!) And yes, R &amp; Z finally swinging on their own is SUCH a blessing! Rayna even managed to cross the monkey bars unassisted recently.</description>

		<description>Was Myra checking to see that she was wearing pants and not, in fact, pull-ups?!  What a fun progression of swinging ability.</description>

		<description>I just clicked over from your comment on my blog.Love the picture... looks just like one of ours!  :-) 

As a former Sienna owner, I also got a good chuckle at the Swagger Wagon. We loved that minivan, but outgrew it. With 7 kids, we now drive a 12 passenger van.

God bless,
Michelle</description>

		<description>That was adorable. I love the way Myra tried to help her..what a sweetheart.  And that little munchkin Callie didn&#039;t give up.  It was so cute when she took breaks and sucked her thumb...she even made little comments to Daddy while the thumb was in her mouth. I felt like applauding when she finally got the book in her hands!
Love,
