Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes! God could not have made for me a more beautiful day! I mowed the grass last evening and we are going out to enjoy the day today. My little one and I are going to explore and see what God has for us out there. Remember the scripture "Come and see." Yeah!!!

I want to tell you of some little something that God did for me last Saturday. We were having Marleigh's birthday party and Monica had borrowed my punch bowl. This is the one that Elliott's mother gave to me. It is kinda squarish and crystal looking, really pretty. Well, I thought as I went into town that I would like to find one like it for her so we would always have enough cups (24) for happenings that we do from time to time (which I even voiced to her that week). So I said to God driving down the road "Lord, put a nice punchbowl in my path today so I can get it for Monica!" Do we not have to ask of God what we want? Really, I just wanted to bless someone else!
So I stopped at the Goodwill first and fooled around, looked at the books, looked at the shoes, spent an hour or so and then thought to go check the glass ware! When I looked up on the second shelf, Lo and Behold there was my punchbowl sitting so pretty. A woman was standing with her hand fingering the cups and I was not even apprehensive for I believed that I had ask God for it and it was already mine. You know the rest of the story! She moved politely away and I moved right on up to the counter with what God gave to me! I wanted to laugh out loud with excitement over such a little thing! Rita, God does have a since of humor!
I do say, God does grant the desires of our heart, when we seek him first. Don't you guys find that you seek him more now that Mom and Dad have gone on!!!!!
