Howdy folks welcome back to the podcast today Katie and I are going to be answering a few questions that we've received from you listeners and as I've said before we really enjoy doing this because it's a way for us to hear about what

you're considering in your life the various topics you're pondering maybe with your

spouse or in your home and so we like discussing them because on some of these questions we've got strong opinions on some of these questions we've never

Considered them before and so we're kind of you know exploring them for the first time which is always fun And yeah, so it's always a fun discussion for Katie and I,

and we appreciate you all taking the time

to put these questions in the box, in the question box

and giving us some material to speak to.

children and we want to view ourselves as students first and foremost and being in alert having learning mindsets and growth mindsets as we are in

this in the thick of raising their children and being able to hear from like-minded

Christians is so beneficial to us and so thank you all for the interaction

Thanksgiving with my family and my voice is out. I have a very

local family. There's one, there's a lot of them and then so like we did Thanksgiving, I guess with my 10 siblings,

yeah, and their spouses and kids, which was amazing.
