Whichever it is, there wouldn't be a week we didn't go away encouraged in at least one way from God's word - how amazing that is!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01538502318975037711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7276278342039529509.post-83339323678198258182010-09-10T14:56:38.944+10:002010-09-10T14:56:38.944+10:00Jean (and others who do the same),

That requires a lot of patience and flexibilty for all of you.<br /><br />RachelRachachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18423926177503674508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7276278342039529509.post-84188679044602220282010-09-03T08:10:22.083+10:002010-09-03T08:10:22.083+10:00Excellent idea about the student.

We had a Uni student come to look after the kids (in a separate room), and paid her by eaching putting a gold coin in the jar. That way it was affordable, she made some pocket money, and the mums got an hour to nourish their spirits, pray, and share without too many interruptions. And Mum was right there if for any reason a little one needed her ...<br /><br />I miss those days now my two are teenagers and I'm back in the workforce!Footprints Australiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17623190578935913157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7276278342039529509.post-14410398988357492172010-09-02T15:19:28.126+10:002010-09-02T15:19:28.126+10:00Ooh, a follow-up post...I love it!

I've been leading a Bible study full of Mums with Kids in the other side of the hall- and lots of your suggests are really helpful- or are things that I've had to figure out as I've gone along!<br />But what a blessing. So great to see Mum's who are committed to learning and staying focused on Christ even when its extra hard work!BGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08238456366411924616noreply@blogger.com
