Saturday Salutes ~ When Kids Disappoint Us and Choosing Joy

July 14, 2018 by Tracey 4 Comments

Nancy tells us 5 Things Moms Need to Do When Kids Disappoint Us.

Brooks says I’m Unhappy with God’s Plan, But I Choose Joy.

Donna lists 5 Ways to Remember to Pray for Someone This Week.

Dave’s got good advice in Make Sure to Look Up.

If you’re looking for quality children’s books, check out The Good and the Beautiful Library.  They are reprinting some old classics, many of which sound like interesting stories.

And the recipe of the week is this Broccoli Bacon Salad…which may or may not get made in my house, since I’m the only one here who eats broccoli.  I’m thinking it would be a nice, simple lunch for me, though!

In honor of a friend who visited Prince Edward Island this week…

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!!

    “Look Up” – sweet reminder!
    “I’m unhappy with God’s plan, but I choose joy” – this was 100% when we were trapped living up north
    “5 Things Moms Need to Do When Kids Disappoint Us” – THIS!!!!!! I really need to remember this!!!!!!
    I looooooove broccoli salad!!! I like a more sweet/sour, less creamy/cheesy version.

    I appreciated the post about remembering to pray for others, especially the part about praying for waiters and waitresses — not that we eat out often. 😉

    Also, Dave Ramsey’s story was funny with a great point!

      We eat out mostly on Sundays after church, and I can’t say we’ve thought about praying for the servers – so that was a good challenge!
