Today I want to celebrate my beautiful children!
Jake is 7 years old and the light of my life! He truly is my little miracle from the Lord. He is such a cool kid. He loves sports more than any child I know. He can talk about football and baseball-- quote player's stats and remember plays as well as any grown man. More than anything else, though, he has such a sweet spirit and a tender heart. I know that God has BIG plans for his life and I love watching him begin to fulfill them! I love you, Jake-a-doo!
Bella will be 9 months old tomorrow. My, how she is growing! Instead of dwelling on the things I have missed, I am choosing to look forward to the multitude of things I am going to experience with her. We prayed a LONG time for this miracle, and the Lord blessed us abundantly. She may not be here in Louisiana with us right now, but she is always in our heart and we KNOW that God is bringing her to us SOON-- He's just lining everything up perfectly right now! She has a sweet spirit, also. I know she has a special call on her life and I am blessed to have been chosen to help her find it-- with the Lord's help and wisdom. I love you, Bellaboo!
I love my children! "Thank you, God, for placing them into our family. Help Jeff and I to lead them to you."
