The blessings Jesus gives me


A very happy little girl, had a very happy little party, with a very happy - not so little - family.
  I can't get over my precious family. I love them so much. What would life be like with out my strong daddy coming home from work every evening ready to go and weed the garden? Could I survive a week without mom's amazing cooking and steady guidance? Where would I be without a hilarious joke-ster like Jack? I'm not sure life would be livable without thoughtful, gentle, loving Abigail. Is it possible to spend two hours without a wide, shining smile from little Jay? And, without little miss hyper diaper, Gabrielle, what in the world would I have to do all the time?
  God has given me more than I deserve. He has provided me with blessings so plentiful, so precious, so meaningful, so amazing, I can barely take them in. He gave me His Son. He gave me His Word. He gave me my family. He gave me the work I do every day. He gave me my everything.

What a lovely post! You have such a beautiful family... And your sisters are so sweet! I am staying at a friend's house and they just had their fifth boy. Their oldest child is nine, so as you can well imagine they have their hands full! I am so glad I can be here helping them out!
I am missing my own family though :)

On another note, you have been on my mind lately and I have been wanting to get a letter out to you-- you are not forgotten dear sister!

Love ya!
