AnnaClaire came down for church this morning dressed extra cute with a huge grin.
She said, "Mom!! It's 2!"
"Two what?"
"It's my 2 year anniversary."
(Still with no clue)
"Anniversary of what sweetie?"
"I've been here for two years today. I came at 3:15 in the afternoon and I wanted to go home so bad. But now I never have to leave and I'm so happy."
We let AnnaClaire pick where we went to eat after church to celebrate her anniversary.
I think she's the first kid to ever know the date they got here.
The only thing I know about that day is that I met my newest daughter and I've been blessed ever since.
Happy Anniversary AnneClaire.
Yesterday was a day of celebration.
Our granddaughter Aysha turned one and our marriage turned 34.
Aysha is a delight and we all adore her. She's smart and wonderful and full of life.
Our marriage has always been the best thing about me.
Watching the family yesterday, all together, laughing and loving each other, I realized that God had taken two ordinary people, and brought them together to do a job.
I could tell you how kind James is (and he really is) and how well we get along (we do!!) but the best part of "us" is the work He chose us to do. Every grandchild gives me a glimpse into God's plan for our families to pass the "Good News" of a Savior to each generation.
Happy Birthday Aysha! I love you James forever.
