Brothers!

Consider this the "before" picture...they have both recently had their appearance dramatically altered...the "after" picture is coming soon! I love you sweet boys!

Sisters Are the BEST!

At least that is what we say around here! I love these two cuties. And they really are best friends.

Celebration of Daniel's Life

On January 12, 2011 it looked as though Daniel would be leaving this earth. But God had a different plan. Daniel survived. This video is a celebration of Daniel's life and a testimony to the power of Jesus. In life or death Jesus has overcome and because of this we have hope. Because of this we can enjoy the gift of today. Daniel is still a very sick, very fragile little boy but is so happy. His joy is contagious. And his life is worth fighting for. Please pray for our sweet boy as his battle for LIFE is far from over.

All of ME

On the eve of Daniel's 2nd birthday I made this video that captures how God has answered a pray I prayed 17 days into this tragedy we have faced. That in spite of this terrible illness and grave prognosis, Daniel would know ME. As I look back I can see that He has been so faithful to answer this prayer.

Fashion Show

Recently my 4 biggest kids put on a fashion show. It started with Lizzy wanting to dress up and then Sam deciding that he wanted to be her "designer". Shortly after, Drew and Abby joined in the fashion scene too. Drew was her "designer". They set up kitchen chairs at the bottom of the staircase, moved flashlights around on the girls as they modeled their outfits and I blared some upbeat runway style music (Nicole C. Mullen's "Freedom" and Toby Mac's "Funky Jesus Music" worked great!). The girls were so proud and the designers were very proud of the outfits they chose for the models. It was a fun time!

The very first appearance...


Notice Daniel in the corner reading his book. :)



And here was the next "round"...







And the last outfits of the day. I especially like the red accessories on Lizzy and the Sketchers on Abigail with 3 beautiful necklaces...




And then they all broke out the dance moves to finish the Toby Mac Song...

Here is part of a video of one of their presentations. I loved this. I especially love when they are all playing and having so much fun together...it helps balance when they are not! :-)
