(Can ...Oh, I think I am going to enjoy these posts! (Can I read the book when you are done?)<BR/><BR/>Lizzie's birthday brought a flood of memories from her pregnancy to her birth. Flipping through our scrapbooks, which we do often with our children, always brings a ton of memories and also a time to point them to Christ. We can share stories of how He has blessed them and, with a few, saved them from physical danger. We also share various stories of God's providence in Eric & I's lives, as well as extended family.<BR/><BR/>I think we have both kinds of traditions- some are funny little things we do that make the Tullys Tullys. But most of our traditions have been thought out (and many are still being thought out) by Eric and I. As we seek to train our children in the ways of the Lord, family traditions have become a special way to do that. Right now, most of these traditions center around the holidays but we're praying & thinking through more. And I hope to write out some of these traditions so there is a written record!<BR/><BR/>Oh, and in answering "why" just this one thought: I think it is so important to find out the why w/ our children if we do not know it! Search it out together & praise God for how He has shown Himself!<BR/><BR/>Phew- that was a long comment! (And hopefully it made sense b/c I'm dead tired right now!)<BR/>HeatherTully Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11128339420825324229noreply@blogger.com
