 My little smile....
who do you think he takes after??:)








Hey guys....I hadn't posted anything about Evie since she was born because I knew most of you probably checked Lindsey's blog and read that she is doing great!  I was hoping to have my own picture of her because we were supposed to go to Nebraska but our family got hit with some sickness and we weren't able to go.  This is a pic Linds put on facebook, but I had to copy it and put it up here!  The girls are such little angels!  Lindsey and John have been such an inspiration to me about being faithful to God and seeing things through with him.  When I get discouraged about a situation there are people from the bible I think about and then there will be this story, a modern day little miracle.  So amazing to have been able to witness it!  Keep praying for sweet baby Evie and the family as they now transition into life at home together.  Thanks Linds & John for reminding us that God works for the good of those who love him.  XOXO

Evie

Hey friends...
Just wanted to ask that you all pray for our friends Lindsey & John as they were induced this morning and baby Evie is on her way.  We don't know exactly what will happen, to expect, or how things will go but we do know that God is with them every step of the way.  They are in our hearts this morning!
Thanks!

1 Peter 4:10 & 11
 Each one should use the whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in it's various forms.  If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking in the very words of God.  If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ.  To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever.  AMEN.

This seems pretty direct...black & white...serve others=glorify God.
How come it seems so hard sometimes to do?  Especially when most of my time is spend now at home changing diapers??!!?  Maybe it's an attitude and maybe it's a state of heart that just makes it easier to embrace those opportunities as a lifestyle.  Doesn't it totally encourage you that it says,"whatever gift" making it seem that even the daily diaper change could be done in a way that would be glorifying.  I gotta get moving towards a new state...
