She did tell me recently that she was going to stay in my SS class forever. I guess that's a good indicator of her willingness to learn. <br /><br />May it always be this way for each of my children.<br /><br />peace~elaineelaine @ peace for the journeyhttp://www.peaceforthejourney.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569182682068612485.post-55685623358951094272012-06-26T17:14:51.151-07:002012-06-26T17:14:51.151-07:00I love Sunday schools wherever they are held.

You may remember, Norwegians even pray before and after meals.<br />We even used to do that in school when I grew up, but that has been stopped.<br />I am not very clever going to church nowadays, not unless there's a special occasion. When my daughter grew up I went with her, to Sunday school, to choir practice, to parents meetings, to scout's parents meetings e.t.c.<br />I knew I had to teach and live the word.<br />That was the gift my parents had given me.<br />I feel rich now, when I think about all the things I have been given to give further.<br />I am truly blessed.

There I met a 90 year old retired surgeon who was the sweetest Christian you'd ever want to meet. The way he spoke, what he spoke about, his body language and more revealed that his wonderful character was formed way back in his childhood upbringing within a loving Christian family and church community. So reading your post here is a great reminder of how important an upbringing of love and faith is. <br /><br />Thank you so much for your comments and encouragement on my blog. I have been very behind in blogging and hope to get back into it soon. <br /><br />In Christ,<br />RubenRattus Scribushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03504345408685635451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569182682068612485.post-59902854325500231302012-06-26T06:34:53.617-07:002012-06-26T06:34:53.617-07:00Your Carole has your same sweet smile!

There I would teach them about Jesus. Dolls don't struggle to sit but my sister did at times.<br /><br />I love your stories Sonja.

I have a daughter & two sons myself, and she was forever mothering them (often with screeches & much drama). <br /><br />Isn't it amazing what the Lord uses to sink godly roots?
