~I am one blessed wife, a homeschooling mommie, a guitar playing crazy photog Mommie~: Special Moments

Enjoying the beautiful calling of the Lord!

I am first a woman in absolute love with my personal Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! I am married to the most amazing man of God in the this entire world.....I am also an extremely blessed mommy to SEVEN beautiful children! Together my husband and I Homeschool our children and enjoy learning from them also on a daily basis.....it is amazing the things the Lord teaches us through our children....."out of the mouths of babes".....this is so true! This "blog" or "journal" is something I have prayed about doing for a long time.....and I feel blessed that the Lord has opened this door before me~ My prayer is that the Lord will use what He is teaching me on a daily basis to minister to others.......as I share my heart and basically make my walk with my Lord and Savior as an open book......I give it to God to do with it as He pleases~ As a child of God, a wife, a mommy, a homeschooling mom & photographer.......I have learned to trust in the Lord for His will for my life....the scripture that my husband and I hold dearest to our hearts is~ Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart..and lean not on your own understanding....in all your ways acknowledge Him....and He will direct your paths~

Special Moments

Silly Gracie ;-)

Sweet Hannah Zoe;-)

One of the many joys of being a mommy is being able to just sit and watch my babies play, run around, sing, etc! They grow up so fast and I enjoy savoring every single moment I get with my children. I look forward to coloring Easter eggs with them today......and talking with them about Jesus and the Cross! It warmed my heart yesterday when my precious Gracie said "mom, today is the day that Jesus died on the Cross for us"! "Did you know that mom?" Well my heart skipped a beat when I heard her say that......

As spirit-filled Christians we have obviously taught our children the true meaning of Easter.....but when you hear your little ones speak with such emotion about Jesus and His dying on the Cross....it brings such an unspeakable joy! My dear little Hannah Zoe came to me yesterday and said "mom, I have to wake up two more times and then it's Easter, and that's the day Jesus came from the dead!" Oh my.....the way she said that and then repeated herself to every person she saw out in public yesterday was just awesome!!! I praise the Lord for helping my husband and I to teach our kids and raise them in the way of the Lord....what a huge blessing and privilege it is!

My Hannah Zoe just told me as I was getting things ready for my kids to color Easter eggs..."mommy, tomorrow Jesus is gonna be alive!!!!!" Wow.....she is excited about Jesus and the fact that He is gonna be alive tomorrow! She doesn't grasp at her young age of 3 that Jesus is alive everyday and that we are His vessels to live through! One day she will understand and and I await that special day that her little brain realizes the life Jesus has given her ;-)
