...a family that works together!

We're all excited about our upcoming trip to the 
Chaco region of PY!
 As parents, my husband and I daily attempt to train our boys to 
"do everything without complaining and arguing".  
Philippians 2:14
And on days like today, when lots of things need packed 
or prepared or loaded, the hard work of training them 
(and learning the lesson myself from teaching them!)
helps us have a good day together while working together!
Even our little guy helped by handing me one carrot
at a time to peel (snacks for the road)!
All packed and ready to go!!

"Do everything without complaining and arguing
so that no one can criticize you.
Live clean, innocent lives as children of God,
shining like bright lights in a world full
of crooked and perverse people."
Philippians 2:14-15

You are a wise momma to take the time and train!!! That was one of the first verses I remember memorizing with my children. When they start grumbling or complaining I simple ask, "Are you shining?"
Those are some mighty carrots you have there. Wish mine would grow like that.
Praying for your trip.
Love you sister,
Jennie
