Happy Birthday




 

I can hardly believe my baby is 5 years old today! It really does seem like she was just growing in my tummy yesterday. What a joy it is to be a mother to this girl, I love her more than I ever dreamed I could. 



















Happy Birthday my precious girl!

It's Real

A week ago today, my youngest son made the most important decision of his young life. He gave his heart and life to Jesus! As a parent, there is no greater joy than to see your child come to Jesus. I know there are some who don’t believe as I do, but I implore you not to stop reading this post. Please just read my account and allow my words to sink into your heart. Friday we decided to go to a campmeeting in NC for its final night to hear an aged man of God preach. I am going to be honest here and confess that I was really tired and considered staying home (thank God I did not). We arrived at the campground and immediately saw our former pastor (where we call our home church), I was so excited as I had not seen him in a quite a while and it was a treat to see him and his dear wife. As it turns out the tent was quite full and we had to sit separate, Jason sat in front of me and the kids with our home pastor and his wife. Throughout the service I recall looking over at Chan...

Little Lessons in Faith

Last weekend, Jason and I had the privilege to go and work with a missionary who is beginning a church plant in the states. He has been a missionary for many years and has planted five churches in five countries throughout his ministry. I made a late decision in the week to travel with Jason so I really began the trip by scurrying around to make sure I had all I needed packed. We took Miss Addison with us and if you have a little one you know there are always a million things you can’t forget! As we start our journey very early Saturday morning I ask (for at least the fifth time) where we are to meet the missionary. My husband replies (for at the least the fifth time) “I don’t know honey, he said he would tell us when we get closer.” I smile and try not to stress, as I am planner and when a trip is involved I have it ALL planned weeks before! True to his word, about 30 minutes before our arrival we get a phone call with directions on where to meet. Now, we are heading his way and af...

13 Years?! Seriously?

Today is mine and dear hubby's 13th wedding anniversary! Wow! 13 years is a teenager, right? I can hardly believe I have been married to my Jason for 13 years. I promise not to be too sappy today, but I really wanted to write a little about the wonderful blessing of marriage. Marriage is taken so casually in these days that I fear young couples will not realize the magnitute of making and breaking their vow to God when they say "I do." I am not here to post my opinion on the union of marriage nor paint a flowery picture that is unrealistic. Marriage is tough, some times really tough. But, marriage is also an absolute gift from God and a blessing that words can never describe. As I look back over the last 13 years, I can see how we have grown and changed together. Together is really the key, and you know the only way to really grow together? It is to grow in the Lord together! The closer we are to Him the closer we are to one another. That may sound cliche but I ca...
