RSS FeedOur first child (book!) has arrived!
Since it is a parenting book we figured we could get away with a parenting analogy. Our first book has finally arrived! We got our copy a couple of days ago and we know that some of you have already ordered it online and it should be arriving any day. Needless to say, it is an exciting time for us. Like a first child, it's hard for us to remember that others have done this, and in some cases many times. It is all new to us and we are just enjoying the experience.
We are hoping that after you read the book that you will give us some feedback. Please feel free to post here or you can email us (the contact tab) if you have questions. We would love to respond to some of your questions right here. In addition to answering questions - we are going to be sharing some parenting tidbits with you along the way. Thanks for visiting our site. We hope you will come back soon.
Blessings,
David and Kelli

My dad just sent me this book and I am into it and LOVING it. Such a great message, and no other book out there like it. With my first boy beginning kindergarten this year, it is encouraging to read that I'm not just "feeding him to the wolves" but making a strategic decision for his life that God will use!
By the way, you can add Barnes and Noble (bn.com) to the online retailers who are selling your book (I noticed that you only had amazon and cbd listed.)
I plan to be recommending this book to a lot of my friends! Thanks for all the time put into writing it so that we can benefit from your experience!

Hey David & Kelli,
We just finished a lovely vacation in the mountains and I thought I would take a fun book to read.... Beth had told us your book was out so we ordered it and I couldn't put it down, it was so nice to read a book for pleasure.... even though it is quite sometime before we have kids it has really helped us talk about all the things we want to be as parents. Thanks for all your love..... Miss you!

I really am enjoying the book! It is nice to get the "other perspective" when it comes to Christian school versus public school. I have heard so much negative about public school from our well-meaning friends, but your book really brings balance. This information has really been invaluable to our family, and look forward for our child to start Kindergarten next year in the public school. Thanks!

Thank you for this book! We have just started reading it and it's wonderful. We have learned a lot about parenting from you both, and are looking forward to more from you in the future - you have so much to share. Please keep writing and blogging!
Best wishes,
Chris and Jennifer Barrett

Hey Barrett Family!!
We loved hearing all about your family and New Zealand adventure this past year from Chris' mom! Way to go! I especially loved the idea of the toy library and the work that you all have done there! We have at least one Samoan relative that we know of that lives there!!
Thank you for your kind words re our book. We are really excited to give parents a message of hope and encouragement as they grow their families! We also wanted teachers to be honored and to remind all of us that what happens in our home far outweighs all that happens outside of it!! Also, if families can be strengthened, then school would be a different place this September!!
We just had our 4th child graduate from high school. 4 down, 4 to go!! She is off to WSU and we are really excited for her. When do you all come back? I bet we will not recognize the girls!! We look forward to catching up with you!!
Love and Blessings...
David and Kelli
