Another Blessing

This is a typical day outside with Bobo. You just never know what he will do. I am not real sure what is facial expression means or who he resembles... Maybe you tell me. Pay close attention to the point where he puts his hands in the air and makes a shriek. That is the part that made us all laugh. What a love... What a goofy boy...

A Day at the Park





On one of our recent warm days we took a trip to the local park with family. I found myself contently following BoBo around as each thing that caught his eye he carefully inspected. It was enjoyable to see him try to climb things. The look on his face as he conquered sitting on the alligators back. So proud he was. Then as he carefully studied his cousins playing with others. From the best I could understand they were "cooking" with the sand. BoBo did the best he could to play along. Poor child just didn't realize the taste of sand was something not everyone acquires a taste for. After a few tries I think he got the point. I can't wait to chronicle the summer in pictures of his new adventures. Our adventures as a family. Enjoy!

God of Second Chances

A New Beginning....Some might think by the title I have had this huge awakening... Not really... As I sit and think back...To the person I once was. I shutter to think of the sins I have committed and the people I have wronged. It seems like a someone elses life I am looking back at. But even someone like I was and to where I am now...It was God's Grace that has been sufficient to carry me through. What a huge blessing that I am not worthy of that I have been forgiven of it all. Tonight we had a Ladies Fellowship. Something I for one needed. Our Pastor started out talking about a Foolish Women and then a God-Fearing Women. It's unreal to see where I once was. I only pray that I can attain more of the God-Fearing ones. Ok, I know I can attain them but probably not fast enough for me. It's exciting all that God has for me. But here I sit now. Two sons... One I have seen grow in his own Christian walk.. Yes, It's bumpy somedays. But I hear him sing and it is such a sweet sound to my ears. It moves my heart like nothing does. The warmth I feel in my heart and this smile that surfaces upon my face.I don't think he knows how much I love to hear him sing. I do tell him often. Then there is our latest addition. So priceless. I have had people ask what I thought made the difference in getting pregnant. We did everything to get pregnant. Five years and nothing. The feelings were so overwhelming. I literally felt barren and useless.Then we did what we should have done long ago. We joined a Bible Believing Church and along with my eldest was baptised. Within just a month.. Our miracle had began growing inside of me. It's the most amazing thing ever. Now, We have our little Bobo. He is the most precious little one. I promised God if I got pregnant I would give that baby back to him. I pray that our story given on more detail could touch someone. To realize God really is a God of second chances. A God of New Beginnings.
