Twenty Three More Days!

Well it`s coming down to the wire....In 23 days, I will be 50 years old! It sounds like such a big number...crazy. So much to be thankful for...The Lord is so good to me, continually, in abundance so very good to me...HIS AMAZING GRACE, cover`s me daily, moment by moment. I`m at aw of how much He loves me, he saved my life, He gives me life... He give`s me purpose, He has a plan, He cover`s me and has kept me... HIS BANNER OF LOVE IS OVER ME!

My life scripture I hang on to... Jer.29:11-12 says this-

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.

! JOYEUX ANNIVERSAIRE EVA !











Happy Birthday Eva Nicole~



She was just so very tiny to me the day she was born. I remember thinking, what will she look like, what will it be like to be a mom.



Today being Eva`s Birthday, I think about the day she was born, my first gift from the Lord.



I think and remember the scenario of the day, being 22 yrs old and being afraid of what I was about to enter into...the birth process....the hardest yet greatest experience of my life.



I made alot of mistakes as a young mother...there was alot I should have done and didn`t...there was alot of things I did, that I should not have...And today I will tell you this -



God`s incredible, wonderful, mind blowing GRACE has covered it all....And my beautiful little girl, has grown up to be a beautiful young wife and mommy and she love`s the Lord...she knows Him.



I thank my Heavenly Father for her. Happy Birthday Eva Nicole, I love you.

Happy Birthday Son

On Oct.2 1984 the Lord, who is and always has been, so very good to me, blessed me with the most incredible blessing a mother could ever hope for....He gave me a son.
The day we celebrated Stevens Birthday, my camera was out of batteries and so I was not able to take some birthday pictures (i`m sure my family did not mind). So instead I decided to post this most memorable picture of my son and I, taken right before he was about to enter into a marriage covenant with his beautiful bride Jessica. His life would forever change and be enriched in ways he could not imagine.

What could a mother ever hope for in her son? For me, it would be, to have a little boy, who grew up to have a heart after God and lived by his conviction's and sought to lead his young family with integrity...one who will, love, protect, and provide for, at any cost.
Thank you Steven for being that son....
Thank you Lord, for giving me my son....
HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVEN!
