We are the Friesen's: Messy Boy Hair....

Welcome....Here's a glimpse of our happenings!

The verses that have REALLY spoken to me (Sarah) lately....

"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock." Matthew 7:24-25

Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings. I Peter 5:8-9

From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. For in him we live and move and have our being. As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.' Acts 17:26-28

May the words of my mouth and the mediation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock, and my Redeemer. Psalm 19:14

So be careful to do what the Lord your God has commanded you; do not turn aside to the right or to the left. Walk in all the way that the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess. Deuteronomy 5:32-33

God, our God, will take care of the hidden things but the revealed things are our business. It's up to us and our children to attend to all the terms in this Revelation. Deuteronomy 29:29 (The Message)

Messy Boy Hair....

Before I get to the point of this post, I will say that I don't officially have our meals planned out yet for this week. Shame on me! I'll get to that tomorrow.

I know you're all JUST DYING to know what the Friesen's are eating this week. Seriously though, even you don't care what we're eating, it holds me accountable to have a plan in place :)

Well before I ever even THOUGHT of having children (well before Marc came into my life), I admit I have always kind of chuckled (in a VERY LOVING way) about little boys who have messy hair.

You know, the little boys who have short hair and have a certain part on their head that will NOT stay down; the little boys you see at a children's music program with hair sticking up.

I do realize that little girls sometimes have wild hair, but for some reason, I've always liked it when I see little boys' messy hair.

Well, Luke does have short hair, and for right now, we intend on keeping it that way. But now, he's getting to the point where somedays, his hair is sticking up, and there is absolutely NOTHING I can do, aside from using hair products, to keep it down. Someday, you'll see Luke in a children's music program with hair sticking up. My mom and I will be merely laughing -- again, in a loving way (my mom too thinks this phenomenon is cute).

Today was one of those days I was just referring to.

Here are a few photos -- I realize photos don't give the full effect, but you know what I mean -- especially you parents of little boys.

And, to add a little "flavor" to these photos -- it helps that Luke was making somewhat of a mess with his daily dose of yogurt.
