Jill's Blog: March 2014

Tuesday, March 25, 2014. Forty Bags in Forty Days. Just before Lent began, I saw this. Challenge going around Facebook. Several of my friends said they were going to take it on. At first I just ignored it, but finally I actually opened the blog and read it and thought, "I can do this." So I have been. Though it corresponds with the season of Lent, I wouldn't necessarily consider it a spiritual thing, though in some sense it is: letting go of "stuff" I don't need. My house is cleaner and more spacious, an...

Jill's Blog: July 2013
http://jjeter10.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 18, 2013. It's been a busy month, but a mostly good one. Besides the vacation that I already blogged about, we've had a few more adventures, most of which involved playing in water, very appropriate for this time of year. We took a family trip to the Bicentennial Mall, built in 1996 in celebration of Tennessee's 200th birthday. It is an outdoor park (not a shopping mall), where you can walk around and learn all about the State of Tennessee. My garden is doing very well. We have had an ...

Thursday, February 27, 2014. It is around 6:00 am as I am having my morning prayer time, pouring out my heart to God, worried about this world that my son will grow up in. Another decision has been made that goes against God’s plan. Gay marriage has been legalized in Texas, a judge overruling the will of the people. The sun has not yet fully risen¸ and the world is suspended between light and darkness, and I have a vision of our country in this same condition. It’s not about making more laws. We see the ...

Jill's Blog: Remember Me?
http://jjeter10.blogspot.com/2014/06/remember-me.html
Wednesday, June 4, 2014. I guess I got out of the blog mode for a while. But I'm back. We've had a busy couple of months. Cooper, now 3-1/2, is changing and growing every day. Not only are his clothes getting too small, toys are being outgrown, and Mom and Dad are having to adjust to new attitudes and situations, deciding where to extend new freedoms to him and where to hold our ground while being constantly challenged. We've had a fun springtime, getting outside once again and enjoying the sunshine.

Jill's Blog: December 2013
http://jjeter10.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 30, 2013. I'm glad I decided to let Christmas be good, even if it wasn't perfect (see my last post), because that's the kind of Christmas it was. It begins with good news: Don got a job! He's working at Vanderbilt Hospital and seems to like it so far. He started last Monday, but . . . My brother and his family came to town that night. I was worried we wouldn't get to see them, but by Friday, Cooper was fine, so they, as well as my parents, came over (even though Don was still feeling...

Saturday, August 17, 2013. Wilson County Fair 2013. Wow - two posts in one day! What is the world coming to? We've been doing a project with Cooper where we have him put a marble in a jar every time he obeys the first time we tell him to do something. We told him when he got his jar filled up, we would do something special. We didn't say what it would be, because we didn't know how long it would take him to fill it up. You can read more about this here. If you want to. I think Cooper considered it a good...

Jill's Blog: Praying for America During Lent
http://jjeter10.blogspot.com/2014/03/praying-for-america-during-lent.html
Tuesday, March 4, 2014. Praying for America During Lent. If you would like to join me in praying for our country during this season of Lent, this is a list of things I have come up with to pray for day by day. I believe these are things God wants for us and have included a scripture for each. These are just suggestions and are by no means exclusive; feel free to pray in any way the Holy Spirit may lead you. Wed, 3/5 – Praise God for His sovereignty (Acts 4:24). Sun, 3/16 - For us to honor the Sabbath as ...

Tuesday, May 21, 2013. Spring seems to finally have sprung! I have a bigger garden this year than I've had since Cooper was born, and I have Cooper "in training" to be my helper. Actually he planted some sunflower seeds himself, which are doing very well. I can't wait until they start to get really big! Hopefully he'll get bitten by the gardening bug too. We had a brief visit from Cooper's Uncle Doug, Don's brother, who was passing through town from Pennsylvania. Saturday, May 4, 2013. It was a fun day-a...

http://jjeter10.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 19, 2013. Wow - I can't believe the big 0-3 is just around the corner! We've been enjoying the waning days of summer. We've had a little cooler weather, but still mostly warm, and we've been getting in all the water play we can, which is especially nice when Cooper gets filthy "working" in the garden. In the end though, with a little coaxing from Mommy, he went in, and had a wonderful time. I am loving watch him grow and develop a heart for Jesus. For Labor Day, we had a church picnic...

Jill's Blog: Thirty-Nine Months Old
http://jjeter10.blogspot.com/2014/02/thirty-nine-months-old.html
Monday, February 10, 2014. I've just been grossly neglecting my blog lately, I've been caught up in doing my family tree on Ancestry.com, which has been sucking up most of my computer time, but now I have cancelled my subscription, at least temporarily, so I can get on with the rest of my life. It's been a pretty rough winter, weather-wise, at least by Nashville standards. We had some of the coldest temperatures we've had in several years (and a really. He's finally mostly potty trained! We're still doin...
