The Hand That Rocks the Cradle Rules the World


I have often heard this saying, but only recently found the poem it comes from and I love it. Enjoy!


The Hand That Rocks the Cradle Rules the World

From them souls unresting grow—
Grow on for the good or evil,
Sunshine streamed or evil hurled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.

Woman, how divine your mission
Here upon our natal sod!
Keep, oh, keep the young heart open
Always to the breath of God!
All true trophies of the ages
Are from mother-love impearled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.

Blessings on the hand of women!
Fathers, sons, and daughters cry,
And the sacred song is mingled
With the worship in the sky—
Mingles where no tempest darkens,
Rainbows evermore are hurled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.

By: William Ross Wallace

What did you think? I really enjoy poetry, especially like this. Do you have any poems to share?

Busy, busy, busy!

School has started once again. That means a few sad things and some exciting things mostly though it means being very, very, very busy! Do not fear though, I am working on posts ahead of time, so we don't have a week or two without anything. I am always bursting to the brim with topics and ideas, but I lack time to actually type them out. Today though we have some quotes to share with you! We stumbled upon these words of jewels and thought they were so precious and right on that we wantted to give them to you as well.




“Purity Is:
Passionate dignity
Resolved with an
Intelligent
Courage to withstand ungodly influence while
Elegantly upholding our Christ given
Liberty and maintaining precious and sensible
Emotion as an adornment of our
Submission to The
Savior” -Amanda Read, written for
Priceless Purity.


“I intend to make myself fit to become a mother,
and being that in every sense,
I shall be fit for any destiny
which God may impose upon me." -
Catherine Booth


“Most folks are about as happy as they
make up their minds to be.”
~ Abraham Lincoln ~

Hope your beggining of school is going well!

Mondays Meals

Did I hear someone say that today isn't Monday? Well today we are using our imagination:) The recipe for this week is (drum roll please....)

GERMAN PANCAKES
This makes a great  breakfast or we have had it for dinner. It does require a lot of eggs so we look for sales. The trick with this one is to have really hot butter before you pour the batter in.
1 cup milk
6 eggs
6 Tablespoons butter
1cup sifted flour
With a blender or beater combine milk, flour and eggs. In a 9 by 13 inch baking pan melt butter in hot oven until hot and sizziling, but not burning. pour batter into hot pan and bake immediatly at 450 degrees for 25 minutes. Serve immediatley. Great with powdered sugar, butter and syrup.

Recipe Share Monday

As I was thinking of possible of possible post ideas, I had the thought, that every week we would post one of are favorite recipes. Today's recipe is Pumpkin muffins. We love these for breakfast, and they are very healthy. With five people eating them most every day with cereal we go through so many Mom makes four times the recipe. Unfortunately that is the only recipe so when you try it you many want to dived it by four.

Pumpkin Muffins(x4) makes 48

7cups
1cup sugar( 2/3cup honey)
10teaspons baking powder
4 eggs
3cups milk
1 1/3 oil
2cups pumpkin
2teaspoons cinnamon
2teaspoons nutmeg

Mix dry ingredients. Mix wet ingredients. Stir together just unit moistened. Bake 400 for 12-14 minutes for mini muffins( a favorite with little people:) about 10 minutes works well.
Let us know if you try it!

Re:Polished Cornerstones

  Okay, so I wrote the article about cornerstones.  Then Mom left to take Amy home.She made a Bible study for us to do while she was gone.  She has done this before, and we were anticipating it with relish.  She does it  on one of the New Testament letters.  This time we were studying 1 Peter.  While completing the study, I ran into some more verses about cornerstones, which I decided I should post. Instead of me writing everything  I think about the passage, I thought you  could study it on your own. Then feel free to post what you learned from the passage. So, without further ado, here is the passage:
1Peter 2 :4-9"
"TO whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed
d indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. Wherfore also it is contained in the scripture,behold I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect' precious: and he that believe on him shall not be confounded. Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed,the same is made the head of the corner, And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holly nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:"
