To My Mom and Mother-In-Law...

The greatest impression a mother can leave on her child is the message of her living FAITH, unwavering HOPE, and steady TRUST in God that will be engraved on their heart forever.

I love you both so very much. Happy Mother's Day.

Thankful....

It's been pretty quiet here at home for the last couple of hours and it has given me time to come before the Lord with a heart of thankfulness and praise.

Thank you, Lord for...

Friends that live far away and come for weekend visits. Even though we may not talk or see each other often, it's a friendship that is familiar, safe, and lasting.

The time spent talking and laughing with my boys this morning.

Knowing that I don't have to be responsible for how things turn out. What I am responsible for is being obedient to what God is requiring of me.

A daughter's heart that finds encouragement in the words of her Dad and comfort in his hugs.

The time that will spent with my mom, sister and niece this week.

A peace that passes all understanding.

The warm weather and sunshine for Sam's first track meet today.

Friends that support, encourage, carry my burdens, pray, and love me well.

Our church.

I will sing to the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live. May my mediation be pleasing to him, as I rejoice in the LORD. ~ Psalm 104:33-34
