I lift my eyes to the hills, where does my help come from? My help comes from The Lord, the Maker of Heaven and Earth-Psalms 121:1-2





When it all began...

Life on a red dirt road began for Martin on October 17, 1980, the day he was born. For me it began on July 17, 2004, the day we were married. Although it's a bit dusty, it's full of blessings.

Who Knew?

 Who knew that being a parent meant...

You would find Cheerios in various places around your house?

You would actually laugh when someone else stuck their tiny finger up your nose?

You would plan your day around nap time?

That sleeping in would be considered anything past 7 o'clock?

You would refer to your spouse as Mommy or Daddy?

You would see your own parents do silly things just to make a little girl laugh?

You would never be caught up on your laundry again?

You could sleep through the sound of the garbage truck but at the tiniest whimper you'd be on your feet?

That sound of someone calling "Mommy" could be so sweet?

Who knew that being a parent meant your heart could be so full of love and your life so full of joy?

Psalm 127:3 "Children are a heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward."
