Prayers

Time for bed Libby, let's say our prayers... and tonight she did it, she clasped her hands together and sat quiet (for about 5 seconds), but for those 5 seconds she was the most reverant child in love with the Lord. Isn't it incredible that we can all talk to the Lord.
We all pray together at night, "Dear Jesus thank you for family and friends, by name one by one..."
In the morning we sing, "Good Morning God, this is your day, I am your child, show me your way." In the car on the way to Nanacare we pray for our day and the Joy of the Lord to be with us and in us throughout the day, that we might share God's love with all those we see.
Dear Jesus, thank you for this day. Thank you for who you are in our lives. We pray you will show your love to all those around us as we share your joy! AMEN.
We are working on saying, "Amen". I'll let you know when she gets that down.

Parade - Happy 4th of July




Libby's first parade. We love Dundee so many neighbors turned out for the Dundee Parade! Libby had a ride in her wagon and waved her firecracker wand! Red, White & Blue. We love celebrating the freedom we have hear. We are taking time to say thank you to our veterans and those serving in our military. God Bless America.

4th of July Parade

Libby waved proudly and clapped for the preteens cheering USA! Libby was dressed in her red, white and blue waving from her wagon at all her new neighbors. Dundee has a parade on JE George Blvd from Western to Memorial Park. There was a band and everything. I was amazed by the number of people there.  Have a blessed day and God bless America!

Count Down to Libby's 1st Birthday 1 Day!

We have had a lot of first in the last year. Most of them have been noted in this blog. Thank you for walking along side us and often holding us up in prayer through all the joys and exhaustion.

Thank you God for entrusting Libby to our care and loving arms. We are so blessed to have her.

1st Mother's Day




What a special day with my Libby girl. We took family photos all color coordinated. Libby wore piggy tails for the first time! Libby and daddy got me a K door mat for our new home! We got to see all the grandparents and walked holding hands at Two Rivers State Park. I love being a Mommy!

Our Spring Flower

What a joy to celebrate the changing seasons. Libby got to enjoy Mommy's birthday (the first day of spring) and tried to eat the beautiful daffodils and tulips. The warmer weather allows for more opportunities to play outside, grill, go to the park... Libby loves it all. She is such a joy all the time. We have been sharing with her the beauty of God's creation and we look at her and that is so much more apparent. Here comes the sun (insert song here). Let's plan a date at the park.
