The artful blessing!
As I began to clean and take down a few of the Christmas things, I came across something truly lovely, and my heart dropped.
Shelly and Isabel sat at the little kids table many hours while she was here. Each time I saw then together they were at that table, chatting, laughing, coloring away.i guess it was silly of me to think Shelly was coloring pictures from a coloring book. She was drawing pictures for Isabel. These will always be framed in our home. A favorite Christmas gift of mine. I only wish you could see the detail and color in them. Left to right: Cherries, plantlife, hearts, and Isabel. Thank you Shelly for being so beautiful inside and out to care to be with, nurture, create and encourage the spirit of a child.

2 days before the twins arrived....
I am so thankful my Dad took this picture....to remind me what it felt like to hold two precious lives inside of me...
Be encouraged!
Lord fill my heart with Yours
that I may know Your will,
those things that I should act upon
and when you want me still.
Guard my mind from useless thoughts
that clutter, harm, confuse.
Create in me a closeness
that Your course I'll always choose.
Clear my hearing, teach me
to identify the lies,
that I may only hear the truth
of who I am in Christ.
Lord, satisfy and fill me
with Your Spirit from above,
that I may truly know the freedom
of Unfailing Love.
Then planted deeply in that love,
my heart in full surrender,
Lift the veil for all to see,
my life display Your splendor.
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
I BELIEVE......
You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. Psalm 16:11
