Layna has been so excited to celebrate Jesus's birthday. We had a cake and sang happy birthday to him on Christmas day. What a day we had....a day filled with family and friends....the kids had so much fun. After the craziness of the weekend, Layna and I enjoyed our nightly walk together and she wanted to stop by the nativity scene at the church by our house. She wanted to see baby Jesus in his manger since he had been missing from it all of the times we visited before Christmas. When we got there Layna says "Happy Birthday Jesus, your my best friend." This melted my heart....I responded "He's mommy's best friend too."
Childlike faith
He called a little child and had him stand among them. And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 18:2-4
About Me
- Tara
- Why a simple kind of life? Well, thats what my husband and I are trying to instill in our family. We are Christians and living a simple life is what God wants for us. I say trying because that is what we are doing. We need to keep that in the forefront of our minds as we go through all the crazy yet unforgettable days a family of four goes through. Life is very busy with a smart and inquisitive four yearold, active, curious, funny 2 1/2 year old and a new baby. As teachers, we enjoy our summers off with our children spending time at the beach, boating or just in our backyard relaxing. We know what and Who is important in this life, but we also can admit that we do enjoy things that don’t really matter like reality TV, good food and my weakness, shopping. All in all its all about balance and keeping God first.
