It's been Awhile!

It's March and flowers are in bloom... I'll have to catch up on what's been happening in our world in these next few posts!

To start, I just have to tell you that at these ages, you are both so very precious.

Madyson, I watch as you are growing in your understanding of our Heavenly Father and you'll never know the joy my heart feels to see you raise those hands during praise songs. You are so beautiful and I pray that me and Daddy have wisdom to guide you down the path that God has planned for you. Recently, your teacher came to me with a tear in her eye explaining you special you really are... When she asked your 1st grade class how we should treat our friends you answered with..."We should treat them with the fruits of the spirit." Your classmates were uncertain what this was, so Mrs. Sutterfield prompted you to share them...you DID and you said all nine, then helped explain them! Talk about the Word not returning void:) I'm so happy that you were there to initiate that conversation and so was your teacher...And so was one parent that was visiting your class that day. Did you know, she sent me text message telling me that you really touched her, how you knew those words and really felt 'em,  and that me and Daddy must be doing something amazing by you...I told her how blessed we are to call you ours and she responded, "Well, she was definitley a blessing for me yesterday." You are always touching someone's life, Mady, remember that.

Mika, Where to start? Child you are so full of energy. At the moment, you REALLY enjoy sleeping late. You get up between 9:30-10:30 am. As soon as your feet hit the floor, you're truckin it to the playroom with speed to get to those Barbies! You are particular about the clothes they wear and the charatcers you create are hilarious. You thoroughly enjoy preschool library day at the Faulkner County library and I love it too. I would not trade these days I have with you for anything! I'm watching you jump on the trampoline and laugh hysterically as Woody runs his track in the yard...Your laughter is like water to the seeds of my happiness.
