Camera Therapy

We had a "therapy" need on Thursday. When I was babysitting, L got to go with her dad to a rodeo and J had to stay with me and A. Needless to say...he was very sad. That is where the camera came in...camera therapy:)

A Lesson In Sewing...A Lesson In Patience:)

I'm helping Brenna make her first outfit for 4-H. I think it will be a growing and learning experience for the both of us:)

Sparklers.

Brenna and Quinn were so excited to finally get to do their sparklers. Quinn however inhaled some of the smoke on the first go and wasn't so interested anymore. He kept coughing and wheezing and crying:( A bit of a let down I'm afraid.

"What if I stumble?

What if I fall?

Is this one for the people?

Is this one for the Lord?

Or do I simply serenade for things I must afford?

You can jumble them together, my conflict still remains

Holiness is calling, in the midst of courting fame

Cause I see the trust in their eyes

Though the sky is falling

They need your love in their lives
Compromise is calling

What if I stumble, what if I fall?

What if I lose my step and make fools of us all?

Will the love continue when my walk becomes a crawl?

What if I stumble, what if I fall?

Father please forgive me for I cannot compose

The fear that lives within me

Or the rate at which it grows

If struggle has a purpose

On the narrow road you've carved

Why do I dread my trespasses will leave a deadly scar

Do they see the fear in my eyes?

Are they so revealing?

This time I cannot disguise

All the doubt I'm feeling

I hear you whispering my name, you say

"My love for you will never change, never change"

What if I stumble, what if I fall?"

Look Who Is Here!!! Happy 4th Of July!

Hurray, hurray, hurray! Travis, Michelle and Ansel have come at long last...AND they came early. We are all so excited!
It was a lovely 4th with our annual Hajda/Slagle gathering for a delicious meal. I took the kids in to enjoy the Broken Bow fireworks display.
