A Visit

We’ve had a couple busy days around here.
Mark’s parents arrived from Ohio on Friday with cousin Brynn.
 

 
Our kids are so happy to have them here.
 

 
We are too.
I’ll post more pictures soon.
In the mean time, we’re off to church.
 
Blessings All,

Even A Child…

 
 
Yesterday we were making turtles and horses and princesses with our bendaroos.
 
 

 
 
Sophia asked if she could make a picture on the wall with bendaroos. We tried and they worked perfectly!

The Real World

I have loved Jesus for as long as I can remember.  That’s not to my credit.  It’s just the way God made me, and the path down which He has lead me.  Perhaps, in His perfect grace, He has seen fit to allow me to remain childlike in that special place inside myself that allows […] Read more…

How special those memories are to me today.
 

 
Now I make Mom mom’s ice box cake with our children.
They love to layer the lady fingers.
 

 
And making the chocolate to […] Read more…
