All I want for Christmas is my two front bottom teeth...

After many weeks of wiggly teeth Paige's front two bottom teeth finally came out tonight! One I was wiggling and it fell out in my hand and the other we had to pull. She looked like a sailor who had been in one two many brawls as they were both crooked and hanging out of her mouth. She was really excited after a few dramatic moments of trying to understand that it really is okay for your "baby" teeth to fall out. She looks like a totally different kiddo! It kind of made me sad...she is growing up too fast! We noticed on the way home from small group that she was having a hard time talking and keeping the saliva in her mouth. That will be interesting... :)

God's Glory - Paigism

In the car today, Paige pointed to the clouds and shouted at Landri saying "look there is God's glory!" As I surveyed the sky the rays of sun were shining through the broken clouds beaming toward earth. She continued, "God's glory looks like that because he is mighty to save us."

I could not wipe the smile off of my face. It was so neat to hear her vocally recognize that God put those rays of sunshine in between the broken clouds and sent them earthward.

Later she said, "Landri - remember the video on GodTube it had a picture of the clouds just like that and it is God's glory." Landri's response was too cute "Yes, Pay--g God loves us." :)

Wiggly Baby Teeth

The girls are too funny! Paige is about to lose one of her front bottom teeth. Its makes my heart sad to see her growing up. Sad in a good way. She is so bright and hungry to learn. She recited the story of Jonah to Landri yesterday during lunch. She got all of the details correct. Amazing! They were studying it at church - but its been over a month ago. Confirmation that if you write God's word on their heart it will not be void.

Landri keeps having problems with sinus/upper respiratory infections but keeps trucking along. She is almost potty trained! Hallejujah! She loves to sing "My God is Mighty to Save" with her play broom as a microphone while standing on the fireplace.

Fall in Texas

Here's some fall pics of the girls at a local Pumpkin Festival.


Well I think that Fall is arriving here in Texas...I could be wrong...its supposed to be 85 degrees today so is that really considered fall?

With the change of seasons we have had lots of changes as well. First, we are going to stay put in our home. Its good to have peace about that. God has us where he wants us - as there are several folks in our neighborhood who have been coming to our new church plant, Harvest Community Church. God has such a good sense of humor - I can see him saying "no the house will not sell, your ministry is here! - Catch my vision" Okay - so finally we got it.

Harvest has been a tremendous blessing to both Coley and I. Its amazing to be a part of church plant. To see the details of God's plan coming together even through all the work. God has defintely grown Coley and I through this time. Too exciting!!!!
