More lil seeds of faith

One of the great things that brings me great joy in parenting is watching the seeds of faith being planted in my children.  This week Lily attended VBS at our friend's church and it's been cool to see her memorize scripture, open up the grown-up bible to chapters and verses and try to read from it, and hear her singing all the songs she has learned over the week.  Needless to say, it makes a mama's heart proud!  I just pray that those seeds will grow deep roots in her heart and that someday she will make a personal commitment of faith and choose to walk in His ways.

2nd grader in the house!

Can't believe it...Lily is officially now a 2nd grader! Where does the time go!!!!

She had a great 1st grade year with Mrs. Riner. She got to level 23 in reading which I believe is a second grade or very early 3rd grade reading level.

 Even though she is growing up so fast I did catch a rare glimpse of baby Lily the other day...we were cuddling on the bed together and half her face was sunken into the blankets and half her face was looking at me...and there it was...just for a fleeting moment...it lasted until she moved...I saw sweet little baby Lily age 2.5 laying in bed with me....so sweet.
