my heart

caroline, anna kate, julia, and hannah,

wow, it is making mama really sad how fast time is flying by. i literally want to freeze time and stay just as we are today and nobody get any bigger. but i know God has wonderful plans for your life. he knew you before you were even born! he knows what purposes he has for your life. so when you don't know, just remember, that HE knows and will take care of you if you trust and believe him. i am savoring each day he gives us together because i know it is such a GIFT. every single day is a gift and i feel truly grateful and blessed that he has given us all each other to live on this earth together. i love being your mom and taking care of you. i want you to know that i pray for you every day, i pray scripture over you and cover you with Jesus' words. i pray for your friends, your future husband, your future dad and mom-inlaws, i pray for you to work hard, i pray for you to have servant hearts, to love to worship, to be a good friend, for good health, for protection and safety to go with you wherever you go. you are precious in his sight. you are more special than gold and silver. you are a treasure. you are a cherished gift from God. i love you so much. these days we have together are so fun. the bond you guys hold and share as sisters is so special.

i love you more than words can say,

love mama

dog lover

caroline, you are a true dog lover, trainer, rescuer, and nurturer. you are kind of like a dog sometimes the way you lay with the dogs and pretend to be one. :) you are always loving on sugar and duke and feeding them and taking care of them. you do so well with them. i know they love you just as much! they are such good doggies.

SOLAR ECLIPSE august 21, 2017

the first day of school was supposed to be monday, august 21, but instead the big solar eclipse was supposed to happen that day so they were out of school. we went to some friend's for lunch and then got to see the beginning phases of watching the moon travel over the sun. it was by far pretty amazing. we then went back home and met our family and watched by the pool until the totality of it occurred. the crickets started chirping the pool lights came on it got dimmer and darker at 2:00 pm. it was so amazing to experience. what a fun day to remember!! WOW God you are so cool so big so magnificent. thank you that the clouds stayed away so we could experience more of your GLORY. girls i hope you remember this because it was really awesome!
