My fave five this week include:
1. Clean and neat house. I enjoyed it tremendously while it lasted :).
2. Reading aloud to my kids. I've always loved doing that no matter how old they get :). I daily read the Bible to the boys. I've also been reading aloud Mr. Pipes and Psalms and Hymns of the Reformation.
3. DVD Swap. I really like getting rid of DVDs that we no longer want to watch/keep and in return receiving DVDs that we want to watch/add to our collection. Yesterday, I was excited to receive the DVD that I requested. I'm also a fan of Paperback Swap.
4. Chatting with my 16 year old daughter. She is so fun to be around. She is also wise and mature. We are very close; we can talk about anything.
5. My daughter's compassion for the unborn and passion to be a voice for them. Every year, she participates in Steps for Life, an annual fund-raising event for Pregnancy Resource Centers. Last year, she raised $1,362.20. Her goal this year is $1,500. Please consider helping save the innocent lives by clicking here. Thanks and God bless!

Wonderful 5! That is a great idea to swap DVD's. Reading out loud to your children is a wonderful thing! Hats off to your daughter for standing in the gap for those precious babies our society thinks they can choose to murder...
I hadn't heard of DVD swap but that kinda makes sense!
I LOVE reading aloud to my kids - although they are active little ones. I still either bribe them or entice them with books that will interest them.
What a wonderful goal your daughter has to raise $1500 for the unborn.
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
What a great week you have had. I am not familiar with DVD swap, but I have signed up for the book one...I just forgot about it. I am such a book lover, I really should use that fabulous resource. what an awesome daughter you have. Mine just turned 19, and she is a beauty as well. :)
Oh, how I love a clean and neat house. It’s one of my favorite things (but not a thing that I have right now!). Read-alouds are great. Enjoy it while you can. Aren’t teenage girls fun? I sometimes get frustrated with my 15-yr-old, but she is really quite a treasure!
I'll have to check out both DVD and paperback swap! They sound like a great idea.
What a sweet teen. I'll be back to click after dinner.
Happy weekend.
Great FFF! Reading to children is so much fun and so good for them!
Have a great weekend!
Wow, I am amazed by your daughter's dedication. Bless her in her fundraising for such an important cause!
I loved reading to my children too. It was a special time.
Awesome 5 reasons to be Faves this week! We have daughter's the same age. You are blessed for your closeness. Mine is struggling so much.
