La Vida en la Republica Dominicana: April 2012
http://thegeerfam.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
La Vida en la Republica Dominicana. Sunday, April 29, 2012. Can Young Children Understand the Bible? I'm continuing to enjoy the radio program on www.reviveourhearts.com and this 3 part series linked below is definitely worth hearing. I was challenged by the idea to read the Bible every day to my kids. We read The Jesus Storybook Bible a lot and we are working our way through Sally Micheal's God's Names. We regularly read portions of Scripture out of our Bible to the kids, but to read a chapter a day?

La Vida en la Republica Dominicana: August 2012
http://thegeerfam.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
La Vida en la Republica Dominicana. Saturday, August 11, 2012. We celebrate our 8th wedding anniversary this last Tuesday and instead of going out on the town, we enjoyed a "fancy" dinner with the kids. I set the table with china and name tags, and they even got to sip sangria for the festivity :). I wouldn't have even thought to celebrate in this way if I hadn't just recently read about "theme dinners" in Jean Flemming's A Mother's Heart. The kids and I got dressed up to surprise Daddy. He is continuing...

http://thegeerfam.blogspot.com/2012/09/pictures-from-august.html
La Vida en la Republica Dominicana. Thursday, September 27, 2012. Here are a few memories of August. Directly before this "dogpile" on daddy the kids put on a their first stage performance of King Nebecenezzer and God to reinforce the idea that God is the Most High ( God's Names. By Sally Michael). I of course expected a Broadway performance for the first go around.Scott had a lot more grace :). Matthias wishing he was Macklin :). I tried my hand at a Minnie Mouse cake for Adeline's party. A girlfriend f...

La Vida en la Republica Dominicana: Matthias swimming
http://thegeerfam.blogspot.com/2012/08/matthias-swimming.html
La Vida en la Republica Dominicana. Monday, August 6, 2012. He's now taken to screaming at us in order to get our attention or to tell us that he doesn't want to do something. When he sets his mind on something the boy is SUPER determined that it's going to happen. We are reinforcing that he must obey the first time and have him show us number one with his index finger. His daily phrases are "Where is it? And "What is it? He also now says "I want some." It's all so very cute! View my complete profile.

La Vida en la Republica Dominicana: June 2012
http://thegeerfam.blogspot.com/2012/06/june-2012.html
La Vida en la Republica Dominicana. Saturday, June 30, 2012. When the kids got out of school the second week in June, I assumed the summer was going to be a long one. Yet June has come and gone and one day just keeps rolling into the next. The end of May begins mango season.yummmmm! We had a small playdate and the kids played with water and flour. Matthias insisting on being a part of arts and crafts. Adeline working hard on her spelling. Darton working hard making a dinosaur. We made U.S. flags ...Mackl...

La Vida en la Republica Dominicana: October 2012
http://thegeerfam.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
La Vida en la Republica Dominicana. Thursday, October 11, 2012. It takes effort to just sit and enjoy my kids. I am much more of a Martha than a Mary. I've recently had some success in my efforts though :).praise be to our gracious God! We have begun to enforce chores and the kids have a chart to put a star by their work. It's hit or miss if they remember to put up the star, but they aren't forgetting the work! Last week we worked hard at making two salads for dinner (pictures below). While the Lord's gr...

La Vida en la Republica Dominicana: March 2012
http://thegeerfam.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
La Vida en la Republica Dominicana. Wednesday, March 28, 2012. Matthias and a Ceiling Fan. Matthias met the ceiling fan last night. He's doing surprisingly well this morning.actually better than normal! It was a miserable experience for me, but we made it through. I initially had Macklin with us since he would need to nurse, but the doctor kindly told us this is the worst place a 12 day old baby could be.duh! So as soon as he nursed he was taken home to get out of the germ/bacteria infested environment.
