Wheel of Affection on Mother's Day

"A woman once fretted over the usefulness of her life. She feared she was wasting her potential being a devoted wife and mother. She wondered if the time and energy she invested in her husband and children would make a difference...

At times she got discouraged
because so much of what she did seemed to go unnoticed and unappreciated...

It was during these moment of questioning that she heard the still, small voice of her heavenly Father speak to her heart.
You are a wife and mother because that is what I have called you to be. Much of what you do is hidden from the public eye but I notice. Most of what you give is done without remuneration. But I am your reward.
And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ. Colossians 3:23-24"
-Excerpt from Roy Lessin, DaySpring co-founder and writer.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers in the world. :)

This Mother's Day, we made this:
Wheel of Affection

We used 2 paper plates,
-With the top part, we wrote the message: to me you are and cut a small window underneath it.

-With the bottom part, we snip complimentary words to complete our message such as "amazing", "wonderful", etc.

Timmy added: "Cannot play NFS (Need For Speed) :p
(Oh well, I admit that I cannot play NFS well). hehehe...

Timmy enjoyed playing with it at the beginning...

but not long after, he requested for another paper plate, and created speedometer instead. hehehe...


oh boy, oh boy. Well....boys will always be boys. hahaha...
