The Next Generation of Mommies.


imageOur Daughters and Granddaughters are the next generation of Mommies.  What are the opportunities ahead of them?  What are the trials?  What choices will they make?



For the next few posts I thought we could explore some of that together.  Our world is so rapidly changing.  The girls are maturing in some ways more quickly and in other ways less quickly.



One example, we are doing a tea party for our 3rd imageand 4th grade AWANA girls this year.  In planning it, I have noticed differences in girls from just 11 years ago.  When our oldest Allie went to the tea party at the same age all of the girls brought a teddy bear or a doll to the tea party now that is out of the question.  Just amazing!  And yet these same girls are not as responsible as she and her peers were at that age.



I just started a little devotion/training with our younger daughter, Isabella.  It is called Princess training.  I found it at Under the Golden Apple Tree .com.  I found so many great things on this blog.  It is great, you should check it out.



Princess Training starts out with a story and goes in to Character training specific to a little girl growing into a young lady.   Below are the topics:

The Heart
Femininity
Courageous
Virtue
Discernment
Trust and Obey
Reflecting Christ
Modesty
Long Suffering
Ambition
Thankfulness
Hospitality
Memory Verses


 Come back for more on raising the next generation of Mommies.
