Funny how when we want a taste of home that’s where we call. “Mom, how do you make your…..” I’ve done it myself more often than I could count. Now my boys on their own will call and ask me. And I am glad that they think of home. All those nights around the table, hours spent in the kitchen and even the arguments over whose turn it was for dishes. Those things are all a part of who they are today.
While I send them recipies and suggestions for buying groceries on the cheap, I make sure to include some scripture. I’m so grateful for my friend Deb who aquainted us all with her Mom’s in Touch form of scripture prayer for our kids. I’m trying to remember to include one of those as an encouragement and blessing for my kids.
Over the summer, it was my daughter who brought me a lunch at school. Several times she included a little note with it and I was on the receiving end of those thoughts so I know how much they are appreciated.
Me recipies are not classics. Not complicated or award winning in their presentation. But a comfortable reminder of life lived together and the love we share.
