Remembering Baby Peace  One year ago today, on Christmas, we lost our precious little one-Baby Peace. As I sit here in the quiet living room drinking my cup of hot coffee, with my light coming from the Christmas tree, I'm reflecting and remembering. I remember many answered prayers during that time. God gave us a baby, but then heartbreak as we lost that baby. Being scared that I had to do this alone (hubby was at work) and I had no one, so I prayed, and God heard the pleas and cries of my heart. I believe in praying specifically, so I started praying specifically for peace. Some friends also sent some messages that they too were praying. God answered me and gave me the most amazing peace ever!  "Fear thou not: for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee: yeah, I will help thee: yeah, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my  righteousness. ...

I wasn't sure, so I did a little bit of research. This is what I found: Sweet treats, Books, Games (not board games), Action Figures/Collectibles, Bath and Beauty Basics.

I have another friend sho just uses them for decorations. What about you?

Blogmas Post #15 There are only 10 days left until Christmas!  My question for you today is:  What is your favorite Christmas book? My all time favorite Christmas book is called, "The Legend of the Candy Cane." This one was written by Lori Walburg and illustrated by Richard Cowdrey. I love this book because it really captures children's attention, the pages are so beautifully illustrated, and it shares what Jesus did on the cross for us by using the candy cane as an analogy.  I have read this book to every class I have taught in school and at church, it is still my favorite! We just read this story on Wednesday to our group of kids and shared the gospel afterwards. Have you ever read this book? I have read other ones similar to this one, but this one is by far my favorite. Have you bought a book for your child yet this Christmas? I recommend this book if you hav...

Blogmas Post  #14 There are only 11 days left until Christmas!  My question for you today is: Does your Church Decorate for Christmas? Our church decorates for Christmas! We had a church wide decorating "party" a few Sundays ago. It was a lot of fun! We hung up wreaths, garland, and put up a tree! I meant to take some pictures of the finished product, but I forgot.  Scott is the song leader at our church! I love watching him do that, he really enjoys it! I captured this picture right before we started singing. You can see a few of the Christmas decorations.
