Thursday morning, Kaleb woke up saying " More duck" . In two to three minutes the sum total of all of his stuffed animals was in his bed with him. He squeeled with delight and kept diving under the pile and hiding. It was only the sweet promise of a "manana" that lured him out of this...
Friday, Kaleb spent a significant amount of the day just reading in Sophie's unfinished room. The notecard on the table to the right kept his attention for half an hour
On Saturday morning, we awoke to a suprise at our front door. Tommy and Jennifer brought their new little puppy to play with Kaleb. He loved it!
Kaleb had a good week! Even though i was suprised by the fun things that happened, God was not." For I know the plansI have for you, declares the Lord, plans for wholeness and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you.. You will seek me and find me. When you seek me with all your heart, I will be found by you ...." Jeremiah 29:11-13 a
Somewhere in the middle of runny noses and sweet memories, our real goal of parenting ...the salvation of our children takes place... All of it ordained before any of us were born!
"To whom will you compare me, that i should be like him? says the Holy One". Isaiah 44: 25
Only God is GOD and is capable of this! No plan of His can be thwarted, they all come to pass, exactly as he desires... That is fuel for fervent prayers...

Thanks for the encouragement! It is always helpful to be reminded of why we are doing what we are doing! Keep up the good work, sis! Kaleb's joy is a result of your joy in the Lord!
