My wish for my future daughters, is that they'd have older brothers, and younger brothers!! Brothers are such a blessing. I only have two blood related younger brothers. But, I have an awesome adopted older brother. (I've always wanted an older brother..so I ADOPTED ONE!!)
If you have an older brother or a younger brother, make sure you thank our heavenly Father for him. Your brother was placed in your life for a reason. Maybe to train you to be a good wife to your husband. Maybe for other reasons. Whatever the reason is, brothers are a blessing! Adopted brothers are blessings too.
And girls, listen up! Our job is to help our brothers by dressing modestly. Do not cause your brother to lust. You know he struggles with it. Encourage them to turn their eyes when need be like from the tv, etc. Dress modestly, and act discreetly. Don't draw attention to yourself. We are suppose to be of meek spirit. Be aware of your body language. That can say alot. It's a way of saying something without having to move your lips. You know of which I speak. By doing all this, it is a way we can show our brothers how much we love and appreciate them!
Praise God for giving us Brothers!,

Ps. When I was in bed with a fever yesterday, Jake (9 yrs.) brought me one of his choc. chip cookies fresh from the oven!! I asked for a second and he said, "Sure, do you want me to bring up a glass of milk for you too Ate?" THAT TOTALLY MADE MY DAY! I mean when has YOUR brother ever given you TWO of his freshly baked awesome cookies, and some milk? He offered a third one too. I must say it was tempting..but...two cookies are fattening enough hahah.
Ps.s. It's my Daddy's birthday today. We made chicken spaghetti, at his request. You can find the recipe HERE and we made andy's mint cookies. They are DA BOMB! Jacob, Jules, and I made the cookies as his present. He didn't think we'd actually make them. But, at his request Mum went to Winco to get the mint's and we made a double batch of them. They rock. And having a kitchen aid rocks. (Just got it this year. Nana gave it to us.) So yeah!! And I'm feeling SOOOOOOO SOOOO SOOO MUCH BETTER TODAY!! It took me forever to do school because I felt week still and really tired. I tried drinking coffee but..it wasn't really doing anything for my throat. So, towards noon I took a few naps in between my school work. (2o min. cat naps...lol actually they helped!!)
Ps.s.s. You can find the Andy's thin mint cookie recipe HERE
About Me
- Lissie Darcy
- My name's above. It's actually a pen name. There's something exciting and mystical about having a pen name. I like to talk but, I also like to think. Writing seems to help me chew on my thoughts. I think thoughts are taken for granted. Often times I don't think we realize how weighty our thoughts are. Sometimes we don't realize it until we actually process through our thoughts. If you've ever swallowed a chip and felt the sharp pain as it goes all the way down, within those five seconds you really wish you would've taken care to chew you food. What about in life, taking the time to really chew the information we take in? As humans, we take in an enormous amount of information with our five senses. We aren't always aware of this information. God designed our brains amazingly so that we aren't getting distracted by every little bit of it. Writing helps me to process this information a bit. It's my way of chewing on it.
