Busy few weeks...

It's the second week of May already... how did that happen??

We participated in the Flagler County Relay for Life this past weekend... and that was awesome!! Lifecoast Church raised almost 3 thousand dollars for Cancer Research.. tons of Lifecoasters came out to meet and serve in the community, and a great time was had by all of us!! We had our followup meeting yesterday, and plans are already underway for a team for NEXT YEAR!!

My oldest son just turned 13, and has a girlfriend. All I will say about this is that we could use prayer! She is the daughter of the family I have blogged about before.. I love them dearly and apparently that has filtered through and my son shares my sentiments. Their oldest daughter is beautiful and sweet and smart.. and has captured the hearts of not only my son and myself, but my daughter Savannah is captivated by her. The first time they met, Savannah *ran* over to her and jumped up in her arms. I keep thinking that is God with His supernatural "family love" thing at work. It doesn't make sense any other way. Through Him, however, it is a perfect fit.

Savannah has her first dance recital coming up, so we are excited about that. She is one of the youngest in her class, but ( figure this out) is one of three girls who actually learned the dance and she is a leader for her class. I have no idea whether or not she will actually DO it on stage... but she knows it and likes the idea of the stage and lights. I signed up to be a "Helper Mom" backstage. Three free tickets are worth the headache I will have after the recital. :)


Caden is... well, he is Caden. Words are beginning to jump out at him from everywhere.. he is reading things without me having to teach him. ( that's God.) He uses words like "architect" and "electrical power" to describe what he is in interested in. Pray with me that God gets hold of Caden soon- this brain energy needs to be focused on Godly things NOW. :)


Happy early Mother's Day to all the Moms reading this.. I pray that God blesses each of us with rest, extra energy and the insight to recognize the Joy He has given us in our families.

Blessings,
Cheryl
