Ready for Summer

All of us worked in the back yard this afternoon getting ready for summer. It was a beautiful afternoon! We cleaned out the yard toys and the shed. We also bought new cushions for our patio chairs. Next we'll tackle the porch and cleaning up the patio furniture. We're ready for summer. Logan only has 6 days of school left, and I only have 3. I have classes Tuesday and Thursday this week and then the following Tuesday is a teacher work day. We're counting down!

Early Mother's Day Gift from Logan

     When I picked up Logan from school today, he had a present he made in English class. Today they learned about similes and wrote a simile about their moms. They created a chart as a class, and then Mrs. Eddlemon gave them a tile and some sharpies. Logan and I laughed at some of the similes his classmates came up with for their moms. I think the one Logan thought of for me is the best and sweetest! I am so thankful God choose me to be his (and Lucas') mom!

No More Sorrow

I've had a heavy a heart the last several days for sweet friends and family who have lost loved ones or have loved ones who are very sick. Days like these make even more thankful for the hope I have in Jesus. One day all these sorrows and pains He will wipe away. Until then I cling to the hope of His promise and to the security that He always keeps His Word.

"He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away." (Revelation 21:4 ESV)

Quiet Time

     This morning I found Logan and Lucas sitting in my mom's chair in her room. Logan was reading Grammie's Bible, and Lucas was reading her devotional book. I watched them for a few minutes until they noticed me. When I asked what they were doing, Logan told me they were having their quite time and reading the Bible. Such a precious a moment.
