Baby Doll Cherish

Cherish kept putting this little scarf over her head so
I had to tie it on and get a picture. Doesn't she
look like a little baby doll! Sweet cheeks!!!!
I had to hold her still to get the pic but
it was worth it. Simply precious...my baby!

My sweet girls....

Chastity at the dentist with her mickey mouse nose on and a little laughing gas!!! Our dentist also goes to church with us and him and his family our good friends of ours.
So Chas calls him Uncle Tommy instead of Mr Tommy.
(My brother's name is Tommy- so she just associates the name.)
Can you believe my little girl is now in Awana CUBBIES??? Oh it' so bittersweet them growing up. She loves going to Cubbies though. And it blesses mine and her Daddy's heart to see she is already hiding God's word in her heart. May both our girls always have a love and passion for the Lord!Here's our ballerina! She loves dancing and soon we are going to have to get her into a class. Chas learning her letters.... Her first "Letter of the Week!"
She thrives off of encouragement and affirmation....and for 3 and a half her Momma is pretty impressed with her learning and writing. She is a smart girl!
OKAY...here is our ADVENTURER!!!! Cherish Daisy----Full of life and you NEVER know what she is going to be doing next. I love her crazy self to pieces!!! Here she is in Chas's babydoll crib.
One of her favorite things to do is to stand up and rock in Chastity's rocking chair (which is why it is currently out of her reach-LOL)! She is so precious... and yes I would say it even if she wasn't my daughter--wouldn't you agree! OUR SLEEPING BEAUTIES!
Here are some pictures I had in my email I just hadn't posted yet. We still have to get our Beach, Cherish Birthday and more pictures developed and downloaded...so check back later for those promised pictures...Don't give up on me. Life has been overwhelming lately. Continue PRAYING for us PLEASE! Oh and pray Clay and I have a great weekend--it is our 5 year Anniversary. What a blessing to be loved by and married to my sweet wonderful husband!

God Speaks!

Have you ever been to the point you feel like you are about to break? When you are just about ready to give up and throw in the towel? Where you finally have to surrender ALL to Him or you know you won't make it? The Lord has allowed me to come to that point tonight. I Praise you Lord! We can rely on His strength. In our weakness He is made strong. He is dependable. Tonight He has shown me to just "POUR OUT YOUR HEART TO THE LORD." In good times or bad, joyful or stressful...He just wants to hear what is on our hearts. Why? So He can be the one to be here for us. Wow! To think that regardless who we are, where we've been, what we've done or when we come to Him...He is always there- waiting on us. Thank you sweet Jesus- the lover of my soul.
Lately through much stress He has spoken to me as we spend time together (such blessed needed time- just HIM and Me!)...may the truths He has shown me be an encouragement to you as well.
"BE STILL BEFORE THE LORD." Oh what comfort to know He is in control even when we feel like we are falling apart. In those quiet moments together is when He reveals His treasures to me. What delight that He would share such intimate moments with me! Who am I? Absolutely nothing without HIM! Shhh be still and try it...just listen to Him...clear all distractions if only for one minute to think of our HOLY Heavenly Father who delights in us.
"WAIT UPON THE LORD." This is a hard one for me. Our culture today has taught us we can have what we want when we want it, however that completely contradicts God's Word and way. His timing is perfect, not ours. And what we want right now most of the time is not the best for us or a few months down the road we just want something different anyway. But too many times we take things into our hands and do it our way instead of waiting on God's timing and will. We can see this through the example of Sarah in the Bible where God promised her and Abraham a child, yet in their old age they still were waiting. So Sarah took matters into her own hands and had Hagar (her maidservant) be with Abraham to have them a child. How sad, what a mess and to think how that must have made God feel. She didn't trust fully in His promise...so she thought she would help Him out some. God doesn't need our help but our complete trust. "GIVE OUR TRUST TO THE LORD."

Frontliners...



WOW! God did some awesome and amazing things these past few days during the Frontliners crusades.

Weeds love Corn!

Cherish was introduced to Corn on the Cob this
week and I think it may be one of her favorites.
She was adorable eating it...as you can see!

In LOVE!


My Sweetie took me out on a (much needed) date...just the 2 of us. Please be praying for us and the church as Frontliners will be beginning this Saturday. Life is very overwhelming right now and we are just relying on God to work in amazing ways and carry us through. It is exciting though as we are anticipating what the Lord is going to do this upcoming week! Thanks for all your encouragement and especially prayers!
