Blessed beyond measure

What a great day I had today! I had a great PT conference today with Luke's teacher and she said that he has grown so much and has shown more maturity in his decisions. He also had a great report card as well. So we told him that we will take him out to dinner, wherever he wanted. He chose El Pollo Loco, and then a Butterfinger Twister to top it off. He had such a great time.

I sure love my little guy and his love for life. His laughter can turn a bad day into a good day, his words are so sweet and loving to me and I love his sensitive spirit.

He has two "friends" in his class that he always wants to be with and he tells me that one day they're his friends and the next day they'll tell him "Luke, go find new friends". When he told me that my heart just ached for him. Yet, my son is so forgiving. He loves to draw, and he is always drawing Transformers and coloring them and cutting them out. He'll spend a good hour making several of them for these two "friends".

Now for that man of mine. I absolutely hate emptying the dishwasher, and he always does it, he makes sure Luke gets his bath, and has devotions with him.

I am blessed to have two boys in my life to take care of me and to love on me.
Thank you Lord for my boys.

Natural, Pure, Essential

I've been reading The Organic God by Margaret Feinberg and I love how she expresses who God is. When you hear organic you think of food without the aid of chemicals and pesticides, just as our "relationship with Christ should be simple, healthful and close to nature." And that is the type of relationship I want with Him.

She also states that "God seems FAR more concerned with our TRANSFORMATION than mere INFORMATION." I can read the Bible all day long and know every story, but we need to apply it and let it work through us...there needs to be change that's evident.

Just thought I'd share that with you. I highly recommend this book, it will help you rediscover who God is.

Live your life in such a way that when your feet hit the floor in the morning, Satan shudders and says: 'Oh no....she's awake'!!!

Just for fun

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter won't mind.

Great Season

Upward B-Ball is over and Luke made three baskets this year. He also received a trophy and I wish I took a pic of his face when the trophies were brought out. He was SO EXCITED!!! He said, at least three times, "this is my first trophy ever"!

Here he is with a couple team mates who are also in his class at school.

2nd place

Luke placed 2nd in his class from the jogathon and received this cool medal.
