Precious Little Ones!

This picture is so precious to me. This little girl wanted her picture taken so badly. Joshua enjoyed the young children. It was like playing a guessing game trying to figure out what they were saying to each other. He had an interpreter for service and when they went places...but when it came time to go off by himself and meet people he had to just do the best he could.

Thanks so much, Morgan, for your prayers and desire to please God. It's so encouraging to me. And thank you to all who took time to pray for the guys who went to Haiti to minister. It's wonderful to have family in Christ Jesus all around the world.

Here are a few pictures from the Haiti trip!

The church has been really coming along. It will fit close to 10,000 when it's done. Many people were healed and set free. The last night they were there a young girl possessed with the devil was set free.


Josh was taking everything in...it was like a new world over there. He became good friends with Junior Bataille. He experienced how much the people depend on and love the Lord. It's a trip he'll never forget...and I don't think this was his last trip to Haiti!

This is the front of the church. The brick work is not finished yet. They will smooth over the brick work. Brother John, Bill, Joshua, David, and Greg all spoke at the convention there. Glad they're home.

Come Home Daddy!!!

Isaac has asked me every day "When is my Daddy coming home?"

He's impatiently waiting for Daddy and Josh to get back from Haiti. And me too! A week is way to long to be away from my honey and for my son to be in another country!

I've enjoyed hearing the church services online. The service could be heard all around the world to those who chose to listen. All I could hear was creole speaking people and singing...oh, Then I would here some English speaking North Carolina speaking Americans! Ahh! Now I can understand! I can't wait to hear of the great things God did this year! I know the Holy Spirit was having his way when I heard my husband speak under the anointing of the Holy Ghost! Awesome! Then I could hear a distant voice speaking to thousands of people and realized that voice was my son speaking. Could it be? That God is using the boy that i prayed so hard for...the boy that grew in My belly? The boy God promised me? Yes! I can't wait to see what all God has in store for each of my children. I'm just raising them for Him! Tomorrow is the big home coming! Like I said ...a week is to long. I know they will be happy to have the comforts of home. We are so blessed to live in a free country and to have all that we have. I'll never forget my mission trip to Haiti...I've learned to be thankful for what God has given me. Though sometimes I find myself complaining...I have to shake myself. I'm glad my son got to go this year. I know that it will be a life changing experience. Anyhow...I've got a big hug and kiss waiting for the both of them!!! :0) I'm sure we'll have lots of pictures to post and stories to tell!

I'm laughing Lord !

God is so awesome! I'm thankful that he puts people around me who make me laugh! The Bible says that laughter doeth good like a medicine. And boy do I need it! Life's everyday cares can become so heavy...sometimes I feel like there's not enough of ME to go around! But laughter can somehow lift that heaviness. God knew what he was doing from the very start! Yay :)

Hannah's 9th Birthday !!!!

Our little princess is 9 years old today! Happy Birthday Hannah!

She celebrated her birthday tonight with Daddy taking her out for a special dinner!

She had the time of her life! We shopped for a birthday dress just for the occasion.

She is growing up soooo fast! To celebrate...we went bowling Wednesday, she had a small party Thursday night, and dinner tonight with Dad. Wow, how did she do it??? I hope I can celebrate my birthday for 3 days in a row. LOL

I am so blessed with Hannah. People say she is just like me! I love my boys so much, but I can't dress them in pretty dresses like I can my princess. We had fun getting her ready this evening.

It was just a special day....God is so good to us and I'm thankful He's always an on time God!

To wig or not to wig !!!

This summer has been sooooooo busy for me. My mind is in a S~w~i~r~l ~~~~~! I've got to get books ordered for school and haven't even taken time to see what i need yet. I've checked at the college for duel enrollment classes for Josh. He won't be able to start until Spring because he won't be 16 until December. That is if our Legislator doesn't do away with the program...so I'm told. I need lots of prayer on decisions for homeschooling. This is our 12th year homeschooling and Now I've got to make some big choices to help Josh get moving in the direction that he needs for his future! UUUHHGGG!!!! I'm going to enjoy my day and try not to wig out to much !!!!
I need to put some new pictures on this blog...I'll get to it sooner or later. I've really enjoyed reading the posts from my blog friends. These girls are brainsters, let me tell ya !

Greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world !!!!!! I know God will help me through every decision! Have a great day everyone !!!!

VBS Time !! Yay!!!

It's Day 3 of Vacation Bible School! It's always my favorite part of summer. VBS has been going great!!! Peoples lives have been being touched, lives are being saved. Praise God !!! I'll be teaching on FAITH tonight. Without faith it is impossible to please God. The children in my class are ages 6-7 and hilarious! I love the things that kids say. We were talking about how we can thank God for what he's given us. One boy said "I got a new bike at my Daddy's house" and when I asked him if he wanted to thank God for the bike, he said " God didn't get it for me, I got it at a yard sale." LOL While the kids were working on their crafts, one little boy asked, " Do you know who Michael Jackson is?" Another said, " He must be a boy, He has a boy name!" And a little while later, my class could hear the girl in the other room crying while she was preaching. A little boy said, " Why is she crying ? " and another little girl answered, "That's a preachers cry!" My favorite is when a little boy heard me give a tongue. He asked me if I was speaking Italian. LOL :) I could sit and listen to little kids talk all day. It's very entertaining. Each one is a special lil blessing of God!!! Can't wait to see what God does tonight~ !!!
