Thankful


We are thankful here today and BLESSED beyond measure.

Abby said today that she is blessed because she has, "a Benjamin and a sister to play with." So precious that sweet little Abby of mine.

Avery and Abby both cried with me today as we did a devotional about not fearing suffering or pain. And cried as we talked about the wonderful testimony of a precious family that we know from a distance. Their story is here.

Benjamin is recovering from another bout with allergies as I take dairy out of MY diet. NO fun. BUT I AM BLESSED by every moment I have with him and my sweet girls.

I am off tomorrow to the big craft fair at the John Q. Hammons center to sell bows. My friend Sandy and I have been neck deep in ribbon and hot glue for a week. You can see our cuteness here and my super, talented, crafty sister-in-law's cuteness here.

Daddy is watching all the kiddos tomorrow and HE is a good man. The best. The love of my life. I love you babe.

Each day is a GIFT!!

"Teach us to measure our days O Lord, that we may gain a heart of wisdom." Psalm 90:12
