Now That’s a Keeper!!

HGG-24666

It’s that time again!  Time to begin our new year with our Keepers At Home girls club!

God put it in my heart to start this club last year, and we have our first meeting of the new year today!!

Our 11 girls, ages 8-12 will be learning scrapbooking for the next couple of weeks.  Last year they learned baking, counted cross stitch, etiquette, rubber stamping, table setting, and even were hostesses to their moms for a lovely tea party.  They did all of the food prep and serving.  It was a delight for sure!

We also have monthly Bible memory verses and a devotional time to help them become the godly young ladies God desires them to be!!  This year we will work on quilting, creating with miniatures, service to others, sewing, have a campout and all kinds of fun!!

Well I’m off to get busy preparing the supplies and tidying up my home! 

I have to say there is nothing I find more satisfying or fulfilling than being a keeper of my home!!  Truly a blessing from God!!

Hope your day is full of sunshine and joy!!

Love you!
Becky

  1. Hi sweet friend, When my girls were in high school I co-ran a group called Titus women and I remember it fondly. You are so blessed to be hosting this and I know each girl will grow in this area. Love you lots.

  13. Becky, your girls club sounds so great! If we lived closer I would love to have Mary be a part of that when she is older. I too love to keep my home and I look forward to teaching her those things. She already helps me by picking up her toys in the evening:) Have a wonderful weekend dear friend! Blessings! Elena
