It's Small Talk 6 Saturday time!!


Small Talk 6 Saturdays is a weekly meme created by MomDot to engage conversations during the "slower" Blog Saturdays. Every week, those participating respond to a different topic. The response is done in 6; either 6 words, 6 paragraphs, photos etc....


This weeks Small Talk 6 topic is 6 things about your children that you are proud of. Well, I have 3 step children, that counts right? So let's see.....


#1.) I am very proud that they all Love Jesus!!


#2.) They do well in school.


#3.) They have caring hearts for those in need.


#4.) They stand for what they believe in.....example....all 3 children had been attending private Christian school, but this year due to funding issues on the home front, they went to public school. As you know in public schools they teach evolution. Amber, the oldest asked if she could sit out in the hall on the day they were learning about it. Her teacher asked her why? She responded by saying that "Man was created in God's image and the God she believes in was not a monkey" When she told me about this, it brought tears to my eyes. I don't know that at her age (13) I would have been willing to stand up in front of my peers and be different.


#5.) Jacky, the middle one got straight A's this school year.


#6.) They are all very creative, but in different ways. Each has their own special quality about them. I love them all very much.


#7.) I am listing 7 today, Niko, he has an excellent vocabulary. He uses the most amazing words. He's only 10!


Hope everyone has a great Saturday. We are supposed to head over to the Kite festival.


In Christ,

You can't just list 6 can you? I had a hard time wanting to write more too. It's wonderful that your daughter at that age can speak up for what she believes in. A very proud moment.
