Grady's ONE!!!!

My how time flies! It has already been one full year since I had my baby boy. The year has been full of
learning, growing and milestones. We recently celebrated Grady's first birthday. We went to the local bounce house and he had a blast! 


Look at me go mom!
Faster Grammy!

Higher! Higher!

Peek-a-boo!
Devan had a great time as well!


Spring Break!

Spring break came as a much needed time of rest and relaxation. School is beginning to get to be crunch time for testing. Can you believe we only have 8 weeks left of school? Our time was spent as more of a "homecation" instead of a vacation or staycation. We did a lot of sleeping and lounging around. 

The boys had a great time playing outside. 



They had a great time pretending to be cowboys.




















How often do you get to ride bikes in the house?




Spending time with brother is so much fun!
So although we didn't travel anywhere this break, we all had a great time with each other! I am truly blessed to have two boys that love each as much as they do.

I am saved! Are you??

Last night, I had a dream that the rapture had occurred! As thrilled as I was to be in Heaven, it was a striking reality that there were people in my life that were missing because they are not saved. I even said in my dream, I have one regret... not being the witness I should have been to those on Earth while I had the chance. I have had a burdened heart all day...


This is just one of many new places that I am going to be a witness to others. The dream I had is true that we don't have much time left on this Earth and I can't hold anything back. I can't say "Oh I'll talk to them tomorrow", for I don't know if we have that time.


What is holding you back from getting saved? Is it proof you are lacking?? "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 11:1. God shows himself to you everywhere and in everything. Just take a breath and know that God has given that gift to you. Your family, your spouse, your LIFE. All of these things are from God. That should be all the proof you need to know that He exists. All you need is a little faith. If you can have faith in your boss that you might get a promotion, or faith in any material item, it is with the same ease of faith that you can believe in God.


You should know also that for everything you do there is a consequence. If you don't pay your light bill on time, you no longer have electricity. If you wait to long to get saved, you will go to Hell. It is a real place. "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23. Know that if you choose to wait for your proof, and not accept the gift of the Lord, Heaven will not be your eternal home.


I know that this post is quite blunt, but the truth must be shared. I am not holding back. I love you and you need to know. God loves you and he wants to share His love with you forever. It's quite simple to to share in the love with God. All you have to do is pray and ask the Lord to come into your heart right now. A simple prayer. Nothing fancy. Just honesty and meaning. And you SHALL be saved!
