A Love That Multiplies
I just finished reading the Duggar's book, "A Love That Multiplies." It was full of great tips and insights. Most importantly it inspired me to turn even more of my life over to Heavenly Father, to pray more earnestly and specifically, and to speak more of Christ with my children. It inspired me to step up and be a better example for my children, to answer softly when angry, and to love more fully. I'm grateful for this wonderful family and their dedication to God and each other. I'm a better person because of trying to follow their example.

Letter to Julie Norman
Dear Julie,
How are you? I hope very well! The other day I was sitting on the couch nursing our new baby when I thought of you. I thought of the time when you called me just to make sure I was doing alright. That day I was fine, but your kind thoughtfulness stayed with me. I knew if I need to talk or get some encouragement I could call you. Thank you so much for your friendship! I miss you!
By the way, that is far from the only time you have popped into my head. Whenever I feel things aren’t going according to plan and I feel myself start to question the Lord’s timing, your wonderful patience comes to mind. I am quickly humbled as I remember how you have trusted the Lord timing your entire life. Julie, you have influenced and inspired so many by loving the Lord with all your heart and waiting upon Him. Thank you for your powerful example!
I hope everything is going well in Paradise. Paradise is one of the most beautiful places in the world where the dearest people in the world live. Give my best to your amazing family!
Sincerely and With Lots of Love,

Duggar Book
There are millions of books out there. Finding one that is so perfect for me, answers my questions, resolves my challenges, and guides my ideas (therefore my life) would seem near impossible. Yet I believe Heavenly Father has led me to many wonderful books that have are are improving my character and life.
Duggars: 20 and Counting such a book. I gobbled it up in a couple of days of reading here and there. They are amazing!! They are truly guided by God because they follow Him. The book gave me tons of ideas for organizing a big family, training little ones with kindness, keeping close to our teenagers hearts, saving and investing, relying on the Lord more and more specifically in prayer, staying motivated in homeschooling, and cherishing family time. It was a beautiful book! I'm so grateful for their example and wisdom! They have really encouraged me to lift my sights and more completely turn my life and heart over to Heavenly Father. Now that's a good book! That's a blessing from Him from who all good things come!
