Sweet as Honey August 7, 2012, at 10:26 pm | The other day, we read one of the girls’ favorite books, Show me the Honey, a Cat in the Hat educational story about how bees make honey. It’s written in the same silly rhyming voice that characterizes all the Dr. Seuss stories. Well, that voice must have gotten into Becky’s head, because that evening she was pretending to read a little pocket-sized New Testament and she looked up brightly and exclaimed, “I have honey in my Bible! It’s on this page.” She quickly flipped through, pointed to a verse, and read, “When God gives you honey, you love it so! You eat it, and eat it. You love it, you know!” I guess I have a little poet on my hands (as well as a theologian – imagine her surprise when I tell her God promises His children a whole land flowing with milk and honey!).

ABOUT US I'm blessed to be saved by the grace of God, loved by my wonderful husband Jim, and embraced by my twin girls, Rebecca Faith and Susanna Joy and my sons Jimmy and Danny. I started this blog in May 2008 when I was hospitalized for pre-term labor at 24 weeks gestation. The Lord allowed me to keep the girls inside until they were 34 weeks along, and on July 27th, Rebecca made her debut, followed by Susanna, five minutes later, on July 28th. We ecstatically welcomed Jimmy into our lives on April 25th, 2011, and Danny on August 31, 2012. This blog has been a personal journal of faith and motherhood and the only way I can remember which child did what and when. Thanks for stopping by to share in my Faith and Joy!

The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree…or is it, the honey that flows comes from the bees?
I guess Becky is more like her mother than you previously thought.
