Matthewwwwwwwww

I'm so thankful that the Lord has allowed me to have children. I have learned so much from them about love and sacrifice--things I never really understood before they were in my life. It is a lot of work to take care of my babies but it has been beyond rewarding to see them grow and flourish. My new favorite thing A does is randomly sing praise songs loudly! She is not embaressed to be full of joy, or to loudly praise the Lord. It's such a good lesson for me. When I was reading Matthew today this verse struck me as true and appropriate for my life:

Matthew 21: 16b
"Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants, You have perfected praise."

What a blessing to read His word.
What a joy to hear my girl praise His name and to know that my little one is praising His name with her coos and giggles.

I always say 'Out of The Mouths of Babes' because they say what's on their minds so innocently! We should all learn a lesson from them. That is also a great verse!!
