Monday Thoughts

I feel like i had alot on my mind yesterday. Through the course of the day--church, family time, sister time, and me time. God had put some stuff on my heart. In no particular order. I'm just wanting to blog it so i remember it! Here are some thoughts:

I love the church family. It felt so good to worship with them again. I've been in the babies & toddler room for the last few months most sundays. IT was neat to look around and not recognize many people. Church is growing, that's awesome!

Many thanks in my heart to the wonderful people who volunteer in our children's ministry so that all those people can enjoy the service kid free. From the goodness of their heart they love children that are not theres for free. This is a concept many don't understand but so grateful to them for taking action where there was a need.

I prayed yesterday that i wouldn't be the person to always point out the problem but let me be the person who sees a need and jumps in with both feet to help. Lord keep me focused on your goal. The church is not for me, it's for those who have yet to come. Anything i can do to make it better for them i'm willing...

Love my sister! She came with her daughter Emmi yesterday to hang out. It was great chatting, laughing, and sharing of our hearts. Love her!

My daughter is so joyful these days. Love that her name means "joyous beauty". It is exactly what she is.. So glad we prayed on what to name her, because it fits her!

Judah is growing so fast. Sweet little man has a heart for Jesus. The other day he started singing "Ive got the joy joy joy joy down in my heart...where?" It was so sweet. He learned it from church because i didn't teach it to him. Another reason i'm so thankful for Godly people who've stepped up to love my children out of the goodness of their own heart.

Sunshine makes me happy. I've always loved our rain and winter months but this year the sun fills my heart with joy. Kids outside all day giggling and i'm running around playing with them. Such joy fills our home. I love it!

My best friend comes into town to day! not sure when i'll see her but super happy she's within a normal driving distance for the next few weeks!!
