Cookbook Update Thank you to everyone who submitted recipes for our 2009 MOPS Cookbook. Niki has finished typing in the recipes and has submitted it to be published. The cookbooks will be professionally printed and bound and will sell for $10. We are collecting pre-paid orders now, and the cookbooks will be ready in May. The winner of the “Name Our Cookbook” contest is Stephanie McAvoy. She came up with a witty name, you all voted, and our cookbook will be titled “Mind Over Platter”. Thank you, Stephanie, for the creative submission!

We would like to thank Heather Huerta for donating the Lemongrass Spa products (soaks, scrubs & lotions) for our pedicures today. If you are interested in high-quality, natural lotions, soaps and other great products made right here in Pine, Colorado, please contact Heather to view the Lemongrass Spa line.

The Golden Ticket Words of Becoming “A word aptly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.” ~Proverbs 25:11

To a large degree, our children will become what we tell them they are. If we tell our children they are clumsy, forgetful or stupid, they will be clumsy, forgetful or stupid. How we react to our children’s shortcomings - when they spill their breakfast cereal, when they leave their assignment for class at home, or when they return from a friend’s house an hour late determines what they will think of themselves and what they will become. In Genesis 49, Jacob blesses each of his sons, speaking “words of becoming” over them. We can do the same. We can start feeding our children praise in the ordinary moments of our days. Give it like a vitamin supplement at each meal. Offer it for midday snacks. Serve it for a substantial dessert. No matter what the age of our children, it’s never too late to include the allimportant nutrient of affirmation in their diet. At two, twelve or twenty-two, what we tell them they are, our children will become. What we say is what we’ll get. ~By Elisa Morgran from the Mom’s Devotional Bible, NIV
