Few things about my Kids-

So I've kept a journal with writings about my kids. The quirky things they do, funny things they say, silly things they may have done....but I can't find it! So I decided to blog it instead so that I have some kind of documentation one day. Even if no one reads it....

Isaac- Such a sweet little guy. Growing right before my eyes. You are so determined at everything you do. You've started playing soccer and have soaked in as much as you can. You practice everyday and really want to be good. You love making good grades. You really like your teacher and want to please her. You have made straight A's all year and really like school. Lately you've been asking to be baptized. You really want to serve Jesus and have done so well studying and memorizing scripture. You've finished your AWANA book with a breeze and LOVE to go to church! We are so blessed. You are an awesome big brother. I totally trust you watching over your big sisters. You get them breakfast, put their shows on, and talk to them so sweetly. You and Rhea played checkers together tonight for about an hour....you play really well with Rhea (Abby not so much....but not because you don't try!) You are going to be mighty in the Kingdom of God! I love you so much. My prayer is that you desire to serve Jesus with all your heart, your mind and your might!

Rhea- You are so beautiful! Inside and out! I really enjoy talking to you. You pick up EVERYTHING! I cannot sneak anything past you. So smart and want to be involved in all our adult conversations. Tonight you were quoting to me your scripture verse "trust in the Lord with all your heart, don't lean on your own understanding, acknowledge Him and he will make your paths straight." I asked you what that meant and you said "God will help our sins not get curly" One time we were talking about lying (sometimes you have a tendency to lie) When I asked you why you do that, you said "Satan gets in my heart and makes me do it." Well I explained if the Holy Spirit is there He can wipe out Satan...we need to pray for strength to overcome. So we prayed in Jesus' name... You started laughing. Why? You said "It tickles!...Jesus is cleaning my heart...I'm not going to lie anymore!" I love you my precious daughter. My prayer for you now is that you and I will be close friends and able to spur one another on for Jesus...

Abs--Oh Abby! My sweetie. I just want to love you, squeeze you, kiss you all over! You are our strong-willed child. If you want something...you will get it. You will try EVERYTHING in you power, including being cute, begging, crying, manipulating, sneaking, or even waiting until the next day. You wear me out! You wear your brother and sister out too. You will sit next to them and just put your hand right in front of them...scratching them, poking them just sitting right beside them bugging the fool out of them. You are relentless...never stopping. I pray that this desire, this strong will be for our Jesus..you will do EVERYTHING in your power to serve Him. You are so stinking cute though and so smart. Already singing your ABC's quoting scripture right along your sister, and you love to sing. Your favorite thing to eat is chips! You call them "crackers". You call bandaids "boondaids" and need one daily. When you are thirsty you say "I want thirsty" My favorite thing to do with you is snuggle and love on you. You'll stroke my hair, rub my face and say "momma you so pretty" (you probably have an alterior motive :) I love you my sweet abby!
