Well...I just have a minute, but wanted to share.
A couple of weeks ago I was blessed to sing at the DB (disciplinary barracks)here on Post. What a blessing. When I first arrived with the group of ladies from the Chapel, the somberness and the seriousness of my surroundings made for a heavy heart. What brought these men there?...how long would they be there? and many similar questions filled my mind. Then I remembered the simple, but true fact.....no matter what we do ,God still loves us, HE can still use us. Even when we are broken He can make us new again and fill us.
We sang for an hour and a half. When I sang my solo...I knew God was singing it through me. I had learned that song when I was only 17. I liked the song then, but not until ten years later did God use that song to minister to me in my life and now twenty years after I first learned the song....God was using it to minister to me again and to the in mates who were in the DB. I pray God can continue to use me...and fill me up so that I may pour out more of HIM!
On the family front...things are going great! Lydia began soccer, Chapel is awesome...every time we walk through it's doors...we are blessed. We are so thankful! Marilyn is stll dancing away in ballet and Creighton's vocabulary is really taking off. He even sings the alphabet song...sort of :-) He knows the sounds...I don't think he knows what he is singing yet, but it's a good start! Michael is working hard in the IO /concepts of the Army and I am so thankful to be blessed to be mommy, wife and home maker! the Art auction is coming together wonderfully ..Praise God! Please continue to keep it in your prayers ( May 9th) so that all who are involved will be blessed , especially the orphans who are in such great need (wwwlovesreach.org ).

I am so glad things are going well for your family! Your joy makes me smile. We are headed to Leavenworth in early July, hopefully we can meet up and let our little adopted babes play together:)
