I think I will give this a try. It might be a great way for me to do a better job of keeping a journal for my family. I love being a mother and I have been more blessed than words can describe with four beautiful children. Pressing on my heart now is thoughts of adoption. We have so much love to give in this family and there are so many children who need a family to love them and teach them about the freedom we can have in knowing Christ!
Today is actually my 31st birthday. Grace is 7, Lainey is 5, Joah is 3 and Asher is 15 months. Justin and I have been married for 10 years! What a journey it has been. The most exciting part of the journey is the way God is growing our passion for Him. I will forever be thankful for a husband who delights in the Lord and His word. It makes all the difference in a family. I am learning so much about who He really is. I love to worship and am realizing more and more how much He wants us to walk with others in their journeys. I think about this life in a different way. It's about living for the Kingdom here on earth and not about the things of this world. My prayer is that our family will be set apart for His glory and that we will hold things loosely, knowing it all belongs to Him anyway.
