New to this blog thing!

Well, I am new to this blogging thing. A wonderful lady that has had a rough couple of years introduced me to it. I just hope I can be half as eloquent as she has been. Karen you continue to be an inspiration to me! Lets see, family.... Sometimes, its so easy to lose site of how important family really is. We tend to go through each day "knowing" that we have a tomorrow. God never promised it to us. The Lord however has told us to love one another. Hmm... how have I shown my love or the Fathers love to my family. In a way that is recognizable to them. Does my husband and each of my children know how amazingly special they are? I am afraid to ask them! What if they say maybe or even no! I am so blessed..... I have a great husband, and three great kids. All of us are healthy and we haven' ever had to deal with a "personal catastrophie" like some of our friends have. Lord help me not to take any of it for granted. Help me to live a life of love and service to your people! As I took some pistures of the kids today, it was face to face evidence of how much they have changed and grown over the years! Wow, I have missed a lot. What I saw most in each of them were atributes and characteristics of Christ. Pray for them, the two oldest are looking at mission trips for the summer. Wow, sending my children out into the world to fulfill the great commision.
