so so good!!

chris and i were looking at old pics and videos last night... always makes me cry... :)
God has been so so good to us!
its amazing how quickly I forget ...
It's no wonder God tells us over and over throughout scripture to "remember, remember, remember"
because if we don't intentionally remember, we will always drift toward forgetfulness..
and when i forget, I'm not as joyful and God glorifying as I would be if I only remembered His unbelievable grace and mercy over and over and over again ...



how can i be so excited about a 2 year old with yogurt all over his shirt :) ...






unless i remember how many cleft babies die of starvation





and it is only the grace of God that sustained our sweet little 2 month old through each little ounce ...



how can i truly appreciate precious times at home with sweet Eden baby ...
















unless I remember long nights in the hospital with my precious Noah bug..
















and in sun or in rain it is the Eternal God who is our only dwelling place and we are wrapped in His everlasting arms! deut 33:27





remember what the Lord your God has done for you, the great trials that your eyes have seen, the signs, the wonders, the mighty hand, the outstretched arm by which the Lord has carried you! (Deuteronomy 7:18)



how happy are you Oh favored ones! a people who is saved by the Lord! deut 33:29
