My great Kids!

So I know my children are just on loan from the lord. And I am to mold them and guide them. Growing up without a mother sometimes makes that hard. But tonight while at a pumpkin carving party I realized how great they are. George full of energy, was, well George. He played and had a great time laughed and giggled. ChloeJace was sweet polite and helpful. I never had to get onto ither of them for anything. George after eating his pizza jumped down and washed his hands. ChloeJace talked with the adults and never missed a beat of having fun or being a lady. I know I had very little to do with this. These to are true blessing from God. Somehow in my crazy way of trying to parent they are getting it. They could not be better. But yet their personalities came through and they had fun. The perfect mix. I think it started with ChloeJace she is the perfect storm of what a child of God is. She has been through horrible things, and somehow is not bitter or mean. She accepts what God has put in her path, and she embrasses it, and show others how to walk gracefuly through some of the hardes times of life. I don't know why ChloeJace's life has to have these challenges, but I am thankfull that God gave them to the right person. She allow God to guide her life, and I pray she always does.

The most beautiful time.

So like many others Fall is my favorite time of year. The colors are beautiful and and the air is crisp, your able to go outside after those long dog days of summer are over. You get to pick pumpkin, go on hayrides, cornmazes.
I can't help but think about how in this season everything is starting to die. The grass is getting harder, the leaves are falling off the trees. It just amazes me that in this time of dying we can still manage to see all the beauty in it. In most times of dying we don't see anything that is beauty, but somehow when it is all around us it is at its most beautiful. And in six months from now we will be coming out of this. At the time of birth and renewal we will again be at one of the beautiful times of year. What a wonderful world he has made for us.
