I loved reading this!!! Thank you for sharing!! Have a wonderful JOY filled week as you abide in Him. Mrs. Joseph Wood
Well, I just saw that Kaylee beat me to this -- but I still have to say it again: That was so sweet! It can even bring a tear to the eye (of course, after a poor night of sleep, lots of things can bring a tear to the eye -- but this post brought it on legitimately!). What a blessing family is.
And blessings on your family.
