Thankful in the Month of November (Day 3)

Thankful Day 3:  I am thankful from by two little girls Kennedy and Brooklyn.

 

Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate. Psalm 127:3-5

Thankful in the Month of November (Day 2)

Thankful Day 2: I am thankful for my Christian husband.

Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. Genesis 2:24

Thankful in the Month of November (Day 1)

Thankful Day 1: I am thankful for my salvation.

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast. Eph 2:8-9(KJV)

Minus One

Kennedy spent this weekend with her Papa Randall and Me ma at the beach.  Mr. Randall had a board retreat so they wanted to take Kennedy so that she could enjoy a few days with them at the beach.  Well, that left little Brooklyn back in Pembroke without her sister and this is what we did:

Friday:  Brooklyn ate chocolate cake and milk for breakfast (I know you think I am crazy but that is all I had we are trying to eat all of the food in the house before our move).  Then she ate corn on the cob for lunch it was her first time eating on the cob :

Saturday:  We went to the homecoming football game at UNC-Pembroke.  It was her first UNCP game and first football game.  Channings's mom gave us great tickets so she loved clapping and stopping with the cheerleaders.  After the game we went and got a Sunkist and pork skins Channing favorite snack.

Sunday   Brooklyn ate mini waffles. We went to Channing's home church they had Pastor Appreciation and Homecoming.  It was very nice and the food was awesome.  Brooklyn ate:  fried chicken, chicken-n-pastry, green beans, corn, corn bread, grapes and more chocolate cake.  Her aunt Judy packed her some banana pudding to go and she ate that when she got home. 

We miss Kennedy so much.  Brooklyn is enjoying not having to fight over her toys but she keeps looking for her and I know she will love seeing her when she returns this evening.   

It is amazing when you have 2 kids and then you are minus one how lost you feel and that you want them back in your arms.  Me ma bring back Kennedy we miss her.

God is in my heart



 Today I was a little down and we were driving in the car and Kennedy was talking with me and she said mommy God is in my stomach.  I said Kennedy God is in your heart she said he is in your heart too mommy.  That just brighten my day and God brought her little voice to me so that I can understand that God is always with me and he will be the light that I need to get out of a dark place. 

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. – Matthew 11:28-30
