While battling exhaustion and sickness, we were able to spend the last month saturated with family time. What a blessing. Family is a blessing. Family is where God's word is taught, trained, shown and spread. The family is where God's truth becomes real and where we are all tested. In family, there is much honesty, confession, repentance and forgiveness. In family, we see our need for God. In family, we are encouraged to keep fighting. In family, we are reminded we are not alone. Thank you Lord for family! I pray we never forget why we breathe each breath and why we have children and stay home to care for them....to fear God, love God, serve God and train others to do the same. And that is why we wake up every morning. Love you all and pray you can be reminded of God's blessing in family today.
A little time at Disneyland with Nonni and Aunt Robyn!
Minnie is still famous in our house, because she has a pink house and polka dot bed:)
Special times for Easter, beginning with a sunrise church service with two groggy girls and Aunt Robyn and Uncle Sam. An empty tomb cake, which the girls still talk about:) And an attempt at a family picture to remember the times we set aside to glorify God and teach His truths to the kids.
The cake was the end of our scavenger hunt....and Brandon was the star of the show:)
Look at that cute baby bump!!! You might be feeling crummy, but you look beautiful.
