Jane made this dress herself without a pattern. It's her own design. :)

Great dress! Love the bow...and the flounce... and the juxtaposition of the bright, fun giraffe against the sophisticated black sleekness. oh, and love the toenails. ;)

Jane's hair looks to be the same color as Bronwyn's? Gorgeous soft curls! And my, what lovely, elegant arms she has.

WOW! She did a great job! That's an adorable dress and it fits so well.

Tell your kids to stop growing up! They're making me feel old! ;o)

She's beautiful

Robin, you probably can't see, but the big toes have smiley faces on them so they grin up at her. :D

Kim, can you believe she'll be 18 next month???? I tell them to stop growing every single day, but they're not listening to me. :(

Wow! Is she EVER talented!!! And what a beautiful young woman she is, too.

My dd is younger but yours really reminds me of her. She has a witty sense of humour and would love to sew her own slightly wacky stuff. And she does funny things with her toenails too. (She's a bit 'older' than her age.)

Miss you too much on the boards!

Why we allow God to plan our family size.

( Allow? Allow God? Who am I to allow God? ) “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.” Proverbs 3:5, 6 Sometimes people ask me what scripture we base our family size on. I think they expect me to quote verses like "Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.” - Psalm 127:3-5 Or to quote all the "Be fruitful and multiply" verses. Or they expect me to recant how, throughout the Bible, God considers children a blessing to be desired (in the stories of Abraham & Sarah... of Isaac & Rebecca... of Rachel & Leah... of Hannah) But for us it was not only what we found in scripture, but in looking at God'...

What do you do...

What if you long for something, but you have a spiritual conviction not to pursue that something... but you see other Christians pursuing it and validating their reasons.... and you feel your reasons look foolish to them, and you feel foolish for standing in what you believe to be true... yet you know you still cannot pursue it, because you have no doubt it is wrong? How does anyone make a stand anymore in this world? There are compromises right and left and people rushing to validate their reasons, and ready to shout "don't you dare judge me!" When I'm not judging, just stating my own stand. If they feel hurt... "socked in the stomach"... isn't it perhaps because the Spirit is convicting them? If there is no truth to my stance, why should it phase them? We are usually hurt most by the truth, when we are not standing in it, but our spirit knows we should be. If someone says "your daughter is a brat" and you know she is not, it doesn...
