"Who is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high. Who humbleth himself to behold
the things that are in heaven, and in the earth! He maketh the barren woman to keep house,
and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the Lord." - Psalm 113:5,6,9

Busy Blessed Days and Birthdays

Again, our little family has much for which to be thankful. We praise the Lord for giving us a great Vacation Bible School at our church this year. The theme was Seaquest: Diving for God's Treasure. To see the Lord work in the children's hearts was a true blessing, and the lessons were a challenge to my heart as well! I love working with children in the church. I am so thankful for that opportunity.

Last week I had the pleasant surprise of running into a friend of mine from Crown College. She was visiting a sister church in our town. I live nearby and am friends with a member of that church. I was taken aback to find fellow Crown student Rachel Boyle in her dining room when I went over there. Rachel is engaged and she and her fiance are going to Serbia as missionaries. Praise the Lord! I had her over to my house for lunch that day. How sweet of the Lord to arrange this mini Crown College reunion!

Malachi is really close to crawling. I love to watch him get up on his hands and toes with his little bottom in the air. He is also getting close to pulling himself up to standing position. His favorite thing lately is waving bye-bye and clapping his hands. Today he waved to someone in line at Wal-Mart. So cute! He steals hearts wherever he goes.

Saturday was Mike's mom's birthday. We had his family over for Sunday meal to celebrate it. The theme was Proverbs 31:28 and we all took turns reminiscing and praising the Lord for Mom. I'm so blessed to have a good mother-in-law.

Yesterday was Mike's 29th birthday. He said that he is getting old, but I beg to differ. We are both still young! LOL I took some cheesecake-filled chocolate cupcakes to Chick-fil-A so the crew could help him celebrate. Then last night I fixed him a special meal and gave him a couple gifts. I am so thankful to God for you, my Love!!
