I simply want everything I do to be an act of worship to God. ********************EVERYTHING******************** like a spider's web, intricately woven, the threads of our lives are entwined, making us who we are, where we are, at this time in history.... here's a small record of one family's journey to love God

bursting with excitement

The kids are all going on holiday to six different homes around town tonight.
Father Bear and I will be HOME ALONE!
Then tomorrow we're going in to town to a hotel for the night.
We're planning on going to a house auction, doing some "trip research", eating out at a Mongolian restaurant, visiting Borders, indulging in Moevenpick icecreams at Mission Bay, chatting about life dreams....and we'll probably even watch the All Blacks test (if we do, I'm allowed to knit so that's a win-win scenario!!!!)

A friend, who is very family-friendly, recently told me her reaction to those martyr-mothers who "never spend a day away from their children".
OH HOW BORING.
WHERE'S YOUR SENSE OF ADVENTURE?

I'm with her all the way!
Only a few hours to wait now!!!!!

KATE!!! I read that!! You all need to visit Hamilton with me - I will show you a good time.
A very wise person once said of London - 'If you are bored of London you are bored of life' - I feel the same about Hamilton - you can make fun in any town - especially a foodie place like Hamilton!
