"Our Daddy may have only had a third grade education, but he could read the King James Bible, " says Helen Ashe. He taught us three things: 1. There is but one race-- the human race. 2. There is but one Father--the Heavenly Father. 3. Never take the last piece of bread from the table. (Helen Ashe co-founder of the Love Kitchen)"

Came upon this scene Sunday Morning as we were getting ready for church. I love how he opened his mouth as he applied her lip gloss. In the background Eben was giving him pointers on how to keep his hand steady. Too sweet!





I watch how they are with their littlest sister and hope and pray they will be wonderful husbands..and I pray she won't be a high maintenance wife. Ha!

That's a handsome group of boys. You don't happen to have one for my 19 yr old daughter? She really hasn't dated because the guys who've asked her don't share her values at all. Nor would they really understand our family.

That is so cute!
And I love the previous commenters attempt at blog dating arrangements- I'd be all about that in a few years!

Brothers can learn a lot by learning how to treat their sisters.

I have had other moms point out to me many times that my now 17 y.o will make a great husband, because they have seen how he has treated his now 14 y.o. sister.

I'm sure your boys will learn a lot, as they build precious relationships with their sisters. But ... yea ... the youngest might be getting just a tad bit spoiled by all of those big brothers. (Just as my now 14 y.o. was spoiled by her 7 older siblings.) My daughter, however, has grown into a godly young woman, as I'm sure yours will, too.

Be BLESSED!

In a world where girls are so exalted, and boys so often not, I have to say how much I LOVE the way you publicly LOVE your boys. Thank you!!

(and, yes, they are one handsome bunch!)

Kimmie said...

Hahahah! I think she is being prepped to perhaps be a princess!

The open mouth is just too cute. What a sweet big brother, who obviously loves and adores his sister (and wants her lips just perfect!)
