Last week I was thinking it was about time to teach the children how to wash dishes by hand. Last night, our dishwasher blew up! What a blessing!
Today, my 8 year old daughter and I spent 30 minutes washing dishes together. I taught her the tips and tricks I knew. She asked where I had learned them, and I answered, "From my mother." The significance of that caused me to pause and think for awhile.
I loved, loved, loved, sharing that 30 minutes with my daughter. We had a great discussion. I look forward to more with her, and with my other children. I am not in a hurry to buy a new dishwasher.
I have also been amazed at how the passages I read in the scriptures each day are so timely and helpful in my life. I'm nearing the end of the New Testament, a book I thought I didn't know too well. But there are many familiar verses and great food for thought. I'll share some soon.
