    Oh how I love Proverbs 31! What a great way to lay out the chapter. Thanks for writing and sharing it in such a resourceful way. 🙂

    I’m not sure that “well dressed” one is so accurate. The verse sited seems too loose of an application and it seems to contradict Matthew 6:25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? “

  • The kids love circling their favorites in the @Walmart Toy Book and this year there are some amazing @JurassicWorld items. 

I decided to go with a #JurassicWorldRebirth theme for the boys in our family. Walmart has such a great selection of toys, fashion, home and more. 

If you’re not sure what to shop for this season, check out the Walmart Toy Book for some inspiration - it has all the best Jurassic World products to choose from. Plus, you can easily grab them at Walmart or walmart.com/jurassicworld.
