Family Worship

This post contains affiliate links

Growing up in a Christian home is a great privilege and we are thankful for our parents who have trained us up as children in the way we should go, so that we shall not depart from it (Proverbs 22:6). Family worship is a new and trying concept for us. New because we did not grow up with a consistent routine of family worship. Trying because we are a new family with an 18 month old toddler and busy schedules.

This book has given us guidelines in our family worship and I would suggest it to any brave parent who is ready to be humbled and challenged in their faith and child rearing.

 This book is our foundation for breakfast worship time as we strive to study catechism with a 18 month old. I would definitely recommend this book for 2 year olds and beyond!

Spending time in The Word of God

I splurged this Christmas and added this Family Worship Bible Commentary to Edward’s Christmas gifts from me. It has been a super helpful commentary for family worship in studying God’s Word together.

After supper is when we spend time digging into God’s Word. We have often let the stresses of children impact of afternoon worship, which resorted in evening worship as a couple after the kids have gone to bed. We are hoping to integrate our children into our Bible time as a discipline and training opportunity. This will show them what worship looks like and how we are to act during worship and the reading of God’s Word. I like to have them a Bible of their own, no matter the age!
We plan to use This Bible with our toddler and it can work for any age.

We hope they can be a help to you as you begin family worship. Our best advice to you is to just start doing it! Start a book in the Bible and read through it with a good commentary for deeper study.

Potty Training A Toddler

Image
this post contains affiliate links August 2018 started a new journey in the Greene household. We started watching a 21 month old in our home every day while also raising our one year old. Two wild boys in our house has been the biggest blessing, and challenge, I’ve ever took on. When the boy we watched turned two, his mom introduced a potty to him and I quickly researched and purchased this little potty  to sit next to ours for him to use while he was here. When our little boy took an interest after watching his older friend attempt to potty train, I purchased this potty seat  that is the same awesome brand to put on top of the original toilet seat. After 6 months of inconsistent potty trips for practice and no real strict schedule training, I decided I was really tired of cleaning really gross #2 diapers and decided to take a different approach. If you have a toddler, you know as well as I do that you can tell when they are pooping... they run off to their own place (often the

Crustless Quiche with Customized Toppings

Image
Half broccoli, half bacon. Broccoli for me, bacon for him. This idea hit me when I was too lazy to make two small quiches. I can just add the topping in after the egg mixture is poured! Here’s the recipe 6-8 eggs (always farm fresh here) 1 cup half and half or whole milk 1 Sautéed onion 1 cup shredded cheese of choice Possum seasoning, salt and pepper if you aren’t blessed enough to have that.  Bacon, broccoli, wilted spinach, ham, your choice topping First you want to sautéed your onion so it can be cooling. You do this by heating a skillet over medium heat with some butter. Slice your onion into long thin strips and cook about 15 minutes stirring occasionally so they don’t burn. Let cool at least 5 minutes while mixing other ingredients. Whisk your eggs and milk together until well beaten, light and fluffy.  Add in your possum/ salt and pepper to  your liking. I never measure this stuff.  Add in your cool onions and shredded cheese. S

Easy Guacamole

I hate when a big bowl of Guacamole gets wasted because it is impossible for a small family to eat it in a single sitting. Avocado is one of the few healthy foods my husband will eat, accompanying chips. I had to find an easier way,,. Which sparked the creation of Easy Guacamole- the lazy way. I am not claiming this recipe is one to rival Mexican restaurants, its not even a real recipe. It is my go-to lunch or snack idea! Here's what I do.. this serves one person perfectly! Ingredients Half an avocado Diced tomatoes with green chilies (Rotel) optional shredded cheese, sour cream, seasonings, etc Directions 1. cut your avocado in half and wrap the seed half in plastic wrap and put in frig for later. 2. mash avocado out of the peel into a bowl, mash it around and open your can of Rotel. Drain and  put the huge thing of tomatoes in a container that can go back in the frig as well. 3. Add a couple spoonfuls of the Rotel mixture and mash some more. 4. Add how
