SPECIAL GIFTS

This past weekend I helped to host a baby shower at my home for our youngest daughter, Jill. As I sat and watched the friends and family members who attended I was amazed and humbled by the love and great generosity that I was witnessing. They truly did shower her with lots of wonderful gifts for our new baby girl, (due to arrive in June).

Jill's three older sisters and her 15 year old niece, Rebekah, worked very hard to make this day special as well. My heart nearly exploded as I watched them pour out their love to her. Girls, I am so proud of you! Isn't it every mother's dream to watch their children grow up, and, in spite of all their "differences along the way", learn just how special and treasured family really is?

The Lord gave us to each other, how awesome is His plan. Thanks be to God! Treasure your family moments and your special friends. They truly are God's "gift" to you.

Happy Mother's Day!
I love you guys,
Judy
