Lent

Sarah decided to do a very hard thing this year for Lent. She has given up Oreos! She even put this little note on the cookie jar to remind herself. My prayer for Lent is this: Dear God! Help Sarah to find strength to give up something so dear to her. Also, please help the rest of our family to find the strength to LIVE with Sarah while she sacrifices for these 40 days. Amen!

good for sara!!!! I love her little note. I have given up my favorite....... ice cream. Because, believe it or not, despite living where it is freezing cold we eat ice cream all year long..... and lots of it. So until Easter, I have said good bye to my friends Ben and Jerry
