Fat Cat Sat

Fat cat sat on mat.
Fat cat sat on map.
Fat cat sat on mop.
Fat cast sat on cop.
Fat cat sat on Pat.

This was the first full page Dylan read tonight by herself in her reading lesson!!!!!  We are working a few minutes most nights out of the week to get ready for kindergarten!!!  She is so ready to go.  I on the other hand can not believe we are fast approaching this time!  She will be 5 in about 1 month and that totally blows my mind!

We put her on a bike at Toys R Us the other night just to see how she would do.....and she road that thing all around the store like she had been doing it for years.  Most of the time I forget all she is capable of...but she constantly reminds me of how big her heart is. 

What a joy to be her Mommy!

Dylan & Mason

Allright.....I realize that the reality that Mason and Dylan will marry is almost impossible.....But when I look at these two together I can not help but wonder who the Lord has designed to fit with them so perfectly. 

I found this sweet poem and thought of these two. 

Father....bless Dylan and Mason & their sweet friendship.   We pray that your hand would cover their future spouses.....and the journey they will each take getting there.  Thank your for their kind hearts and the works you are already doing in their lives.  Amen



Lord I know there is someone,
In this world for me
Keep him safe from harm,
And from temptation help him flee

Make him a leader,
Who can guide me through the years.
Give him a loving arm to hold me,
And to dry all my tears.

Mold him to be a father,
As you have been to me.
Always keep him by my side
A right arm forever he’ll be.

Cause his love for you to grow,
And a true doctrine let him know.
And in his life forever,
Let your light always show.

Place him in the ministry,
So more can hear God’s word
And when the trials come,
Help us praise you Lord.

Give him a compassion,
Toward those who are orphaned
And to such as these,
Our home will always be open.

Finally Lord I ask you,
Help him keep himself
Because a Christian man like this,
Is valued above great wealth.

Pictures that just make you smile

Well....it is official...neither child looks like me.  Jude looks like Uncle Shea and this picture of Dylan is the spitting image of her Dad at this age. 

These pictures totally capture each personality.

Enjoy!
