Opportunities for growth
Stretching. Growing. Growing pains. Growing JOYS!
I was given an incredible book titled “Loving Our Kids on Purpose” by Danny Silk. It’s totally wrecking me, in a completely great and painfully stretching way.
I have the opportunity to go to this therapeutic parenting conference in two weeks. If God opens the doors, which He totally is already doing, I am totally expecting to be challenged in crazy ways there too. Plus, I will get to meet my amazing friend, Christine, face to face for the first time. I can admit, I’m more than a little giddy. Yeah, I am totally having middle-school “I want to be the cool kid,” or at least “WITH the cool kid,” anxiety.
Finally, Jeremiah has expressed interest in joining the Boy Scouts. I grew up in Girl Scouts (before they started taking sex-ed liberties), and then later, Calvinettes, so I am excited that he is expressing interest in this respected, character-developing program. I contacted two local troops, and I’m hoping that even though he has no experience, we will find a troop where he can fit and excel.He will be challenged, and that is good!
How are you being stretched?
Blessings!
Hannah

I’m trying to work it so I can go to that conference as well. I’ve been following your blog for awhile now and I love to meet you.
I know! Isn’t that exciting!
If hope is the assurance of things unseen, than God is sure doing a lot of unseen things, cuz I am hoping like crazy!
