One Thousand Gifts

I just started reading this book a few days ago...

I have laughed.  Tears have streamed from my eyes.  The words have spoken to me.  My eyes are open.  My heart is yearning.  Thanksgiving...  Joy...  Grace...

I have begun my list of  One Thousand Gifts

Won't you?

18 months...

Our little man turned 18 months yesterday.  We were visiting family out of town so I am  day late, but here he is.  What a blessing!

So little preparation
so many
unrealistic expectations
so often
dreams are dashed
unwanted fears
realized.
Too few
understand where they are
too few
know where they're going
too many
feel alone and lost.
Yet the One who knows
and who understands
has joined the journey.
He holds a light
in His hands
and He is One
who can be trusted.

Christmas Celebrations 2010



 We are so thankful we were able to spend time with so many of our extended family this year.  
Although I did not do very well at getting photos at all the gatherings we have the memories and below are a few pics to share with you.

 So tough for me to get Gabe to sit still with the girls.

 Papa and Nana and the Littles





Grandpa and Grandma





Go Tell It On The Mountain
Over The Hills...
And everywhere!!!
That Jesus Christ is born!!!!
