The Perfect Tree




We had a fun time searching for, finding and decorating our Christmas tree this weekend! Of course, many of the same ornaments ended up on the same branch. That makes the tree just perfect!
Now ... where is the snow???

An Incredible "Gotcha" Day!


December 6, 2009 ... Lilly's 5th anniversary of her Gotcha Day!!!
We can hardly believe that 5 years have gone by. Lilly is such a precious little lady and we are constantly blessed because of her. How does the Lord make such a perfect match? Only HE can do that! Watching her "gotcha" video always brings tears to our eyes. Lilly watched with enthusiasm knowing she was that precious little baby on the TV. My how she has grown!

But what makes this day even MORE amazing is the sweet time Lilly and I had together before bedtime. Kirk was in reading to Josh and Jess, so we were talking in her bedroom. She asked ...
"Mommy, what does it mean to be born again?" After our discussion, she asked Jesus into her heart!! I think she has always known who Jesus is, but to hear her beautiful voice pray that prayer of salvation is amazing! And now she KNOWS who Jesus is!

When we were done praying, she looked at me and said, "Mommy, you can talk in your normal voice now and stop crying." Yes, I cried and had a hard time getting my words out - therefore, my voice was not normal. :)
Grow in Christ little lady - He has AMAZING plans for your life!
Dec. 6 ... an incredible day!
