Surprise! I'm feeling the overwhelming need to post something just to let you know that we're still alive and in the midst of moving/vacation business. Hoping it will slow down soon, but no guarantees! :) Good news is we have our Colorado home painted and unpacked to functional and our family of 5 is all back together again. We plan to head to Colorado this coming Friday to get fully settled in. The bad news is it SNOWED while we were there...yep we're definitly not in California anymore!
But what is really on my heart is my daughter's birthday. Kensington Eleanor Rose is 1...ok technically she'll be one in 57 min...but still. I am so, so grateful for the spirit that the Lord has given her and the joy that she brings to so many. Praying that the beauty that God has gifted her will shine from a heart that comes to love Jesus and longs to bring Him glory. What a precious gift she is. I still look at her in awe and then glance up to see her two towering brothers over her and my heart is overwhelmed with these three precious lives God has commissioned me to love and parent and point to Him. God have mercy and grant me wisdom and patience and love like yours! We are taking Kensington to Disneyland tomorrow to celebrate her first birthday. We had an amazing little family party today complete with princess sash, pink balloons, flowers, presents and her very first cake and icecream. So fun. Thankful for all the ways that God has provided for us to celbrate her! Can't wait to introduce her to the Princesses tomorrow and whisper in her ear that she is a princess of the one true KING!
Until I catch a moments breath again...Jesus loves you!
