February Food Calendar!

Yeah, it's February, my favorite winter month of the year!
I really do enjoy February for many reasons. First, when I was young it was usually the best month to go snowboarding. Now I love it because there are many family birthdays, which means lots of cake (I LOVE cake). Also February is the month of love which means cutesie crafts and cookie baking that I get to do with my kiddos! But before we get into all that here's my families food calendar for the month. Enjoy!

February Food Calendar

Sweet n Sour Pork is our new family favorite. 
 For a list of my 20 favorite afternoon snack ideas check out "Snack Attack"

For a satisfying and nutritional meal plan for the Paleo Diet check out NOM NOM Paleo
where I find a lot of my recipes.

Also I pulled many of my recipes from my favorite cookbook The Cooking Light Gluten-Free Cookbook
When cooking Gluten-Free watch out for a lot of extra starchy foods and remember sugar is still sugar and even if its non-wheat flour that doesn't mean its healthy for you carbs are still carbs.

Happy Dinner Time with your Family

A Mother's Prayer

Lord bless my home and anyone who enters. Lead me daily so that I am always aware of You! Whether educating my kids, cooking or cleaning may my attitude always be that of a servant. Give me the words to guide my children to You, to know You, Your character and love You, Lord. Please teach to have patience and to always be learning. Lord mold me through each stage of life so I am continually growing and pursuing You no matter what. Lord I want to be a great mom and wife and I know that if I look only to You for help that I can accomplish this, the love for my family that I desire to show them. Lord I'm amazed by You and I love You. Amen.

Full of Life, Full of Love

"The spirited child-often called "difficult" or "strong-willed"--possesses traits we value in adults yet find challenging in children. Research shows that spirited kids are wired to be "more"-by temperament, they are more intense, sensitive, perceptive, persistent, and uncomfortable with change than the average child." It seems as though we have three, and they are very much like me. What does this mean? I need to be compassionate, consistent, confident, controlled, all with a gentle yet firm approach. Yes my plate is full.

Motherhood: A rigorous training ground

What an awesome responsibility mothers have to their children. Cultural stereotypes promote the idea that giving birth miraculously endows women with kindness, compassion, and goodness. But we all know better. Many of us can witness that we are made more aware of our weaknesses and impatience after becoming mothers than we were before. Godliness and generosity are not prerequisites of giving birth; they are characteristics that God hones and whittles into our character over time. Motherhood provides a rigorous training ground where we can display practice and model the disciplines of love, honesty, and compassion before our children. --Rebecca Laird
