Wonderful Day with my Boys

I think today was a wonderful day!! Got up early, got the boys ready and off to school, had to go to work for a short 4 hours to catch up on some stuff. Left there at 1:30 with the gorgeous sun shining! Came home straightened my house a little, finished a load of clothes and started another. Fixed some baked potato soup for the boys for dinner, fixed me a yummy strawberry banana smoothie with ice only no sugar or sweetener at all, it was a wonderful lunch smoothie!! By this time it is time to get the boys, then I spend the rest of the day with my precious boys! Did homework on a blanket in the sun, threw so balls and hit some balls, then we went on a hike to the creek and found our "stone of faith" to put in our garden. We then came back and ate dinner. I fixed Eric and I a wonderful salad with balsamic vinegar and olive oil dressing!! Delicioso!! Then we built a fire in our fire pit and sat around and talked, and decided what we would do at chapel next week. We then came in got baths, and tucked the boys in bed then dad came in and said the prayer. There was such a sweet spirit in that room. After Eric left the boys insisted I stay so I did. They wanted there legs scratched, ankles rubbed, and hand held. I asked them where Khloe would fit in they said right in the middle! Then John Michael asked me to sing a song...I sang, "Jesus lover of my soul...Jesus I will never let you go..You rescued me from the miry clay, set my feet upon the rock and now I know..." Suffice it to say I bawled through the whole song! Then they wanted me to sing Open the eyes of my heart, so we did and Brayden and Nathan sang that one with me. I bawled through it too. What a blessing to be a child of God, to get to share moments like these with the most important people in my life. To make memories with your boys that will stay with you and them forever. I held their hands as I sang and when I would cry a little during the song Brayden's hand would gently but firmly hold mine harder!! To know and feel that God was so strong in that room tonight! God has mighty plans for these boys and I am so thankful He gave them to me for a while. My kids are everything to me , my husband is my heart and bestfriend, but Jesus has my soul, heart, and mind! May I glorify you more every day. May my boys be courageous in their faith and grow to be Godly men!! I love my family and I love my God, Abba Father, Jehovah Jireh, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, Emmanuel, wonderful counselor, my Best Friend!!
