A little more love and a little less self.

Well it's August {again}, and that means that school is just around the corner, Liberty and Grace have a birthday this month, and it's so very HOT outside!!  Last year at this time I was HUGE, I could barely see my feet, and I was eagerly anticipating having a baby!  Don't you wish you could make the hands on the clock move just a little bit slower? 
I came across this quote by Charles Spurgeon today, it is a beautiful quote about love.
"That love which would lead its beloved into sin is lust; it deserves not the name of love; but true love will ever seek the highest health and wholeness (which is holiness) of its object. Pure affection will grieve to see a fault, mourn over a folly, and seek to remove a blot. Perfect love seeks the perfection of the thing it loves."
 It kind of cuts to the heart, doesn't it?  Most people today are so absorbed in "self".  We don't know the first thing about the love we are to have for each other.  It's more about, "what's in it for me?"  We would do well to go back and read 1Corinthians 13.  Even better yet, memorize it and live it!

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer. {even if it is a little hot}

Surprise!


We woke up Sunday morning to a surprise under our porch steps....Kittens!  We weren't even sure our cat was pregnant, so.... nothing like a good ole' surprise!  She had 4, 2 black and 2 orange.  The kids sure are delighted!  Babies of all kinds always bring excitement, almost always... :)

On to other news, another birthday is approaching, only this time, it's mine.  It's hard to get too excited about turning another year older.  Wouldn't it be nice to stay 29??  It was hard for me when I turned 30, and THAT was 5 years ago....I still don't think I've gotten over it! 

On to the best news....we are done with school for the summer!!!  YAY!  We don't have any major plans for the summer, but it is nice to take a break for a while.  And we are looking forward to having family visit as well.  What is y'alls plans for the summer?
