Comments on comments and Books.
I was going to post crying that nobody must be reading my posts since nobod comments, but dear Fish of Gold commented! Huzzah.
I am currently reading several books:
The Fifth Elephant by Terry Pratchett--fantasy, tongue-in-cheek silliness.
The Organic God by Margaret Feinberg--a postmodern/emergent author I've not read before
The Discipline Book by Dr. William Sears--good, focuses on non-punitive, teaching self-discipline
What Your Doctor May NOT Tell You About Vaccinations by Stephanie Cave M.D.--very interesting info talking about the side effects of vaccinations and how to minimize some of the risks. But did you know that some vaccines are grown in the cells of aborted babies? If you look at the ingredients/info lists on CDC and from the inserts, it says human diploid cells. (just one of the interesting things I've learned about vaccines.)
John by John--for our couples' Bible study
and I know I've got a couple more books I've started, but where they are, I don't know!
I just finished:
Protecting the Gift by Gavin de Becker--great suggestion for question to ask your babysitter, daycare providers, and school administration. Things to teach your children to be alert for and not just the typical(ly useless) "Look for a policeman if you're lost." But he is a little far out on gun control(which has been bugging me for ages, and I'm going to post on soon. In fact, I wrote a whole paragraph, and I'm just going to put it all in a new post.

That was news to me about vaccines - thanks for the heads up.
Maggi,
I'd love to have you post your thoughts on my recent book the Organic God on my blog at http://margaretfeinberg.blogspot.com/.
BTW - My husband's mom is from North Dakota and while we haven't visited yet I'd imagine we will be showing up in Grand Forks at some point in the future.
I just got it. I am "dear fish of gold." Wow. I really do deserve that name. :D
Read a few of those...
You might also like books by Sally and Clay Clarkson such as "The Mission of Motherhood" "The Ministry of Motherhood" and "Heartfelt Discipline". All very gentle Christian parenting. First one is my fave!
