MENE MONDAY: Twenty Eight

avatar

Today is my Wife's Birthday!

Normally for my Wife's birthday, we'd go out for dinner or find something special to do, just the two of us. But this birthday is very special. You see, my wife is two weeks over-due to give birth to our fifth child! We're on baby-watch!

So 28 is a very special number for us: October 28th is my wife's birthday, November 28th is our wedding anniversary, and January 28th is my birthday and my oldest daughter's birthday. And if baby comes tonight, we'll have another birthday on the 28th! If not, that's fine too.

MENE has helped Commemorate "28"

I wasn't even trying, but I purchased a "2" platinum charm, then an "8" platinum charm, just because they were affordable and in stock. When I got the platinum chain, I put the platinum charms together and saw "28"

Perfect.

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.

No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations. Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books.

For a limited time, use coupon code FORTY for 40% off your purchase! Check out the books here.

"SMART PEOPLE today are figuring out how to trade without the creature being able to control them - using things like gold and silver products, garden co-ops, online bartering and digital currencies such as Bitcoin."

Baby will come in due time, we'll wait as long as we need to. Patience has a 100% success rate. Our midwife has been checking up on us and the baby is healthy. My last child was 2 weeks late also.
