Busy Bees

It seems like this past week things have moved from a turtles pace around here to faster then fast! New journey groups started at our church and Matt and I joined one! WOO HOO! It's been since Peyton was a baby since we've done one! Matt and I will be learning how to become a contagious Christian...so you all better watch out! ;)

The boys and I started a Bible Study this morning, that I'm very excited about. It's called Bible Study Fellowship and it's an international Bible study that has been around for over 50 years. The really special thing about me enrolling my kiddos in it is the fact that my mom did BSF when I was a child and so I went through the program that my boys will be too! It comes full circle! The boys will be in their own age appropriate rooms, where they will sing study a Bible story that goes along with what I will be learning in my class. I'm so excited to be sharing this experience with my kids! I feel like I'm bursting at the seams! Peyton's little mind is so eager to learn right now, and his brain is soaking up EVERYTHING around him! I caught him earlier singing a song about God, and when I asked him where he learned it, he said "...at that new church." The greatest thing about today though was Mr Parker. He has had separation anxiety issues since, well, forever, and refuses to let me leave his sight. His teacher, who is a friend of ours, said that he sat there and folded his hands during the prayer and listened to his Bible story! :) Ahhh! The peace that that brings to my heart is overwhelming! God works small miracles like this all the time! Thank you Jesus!

Oh and just so you know...I let my shaggy, mullet child Parker get his first haircut! :) He's so handsome, but lost A LOT of his baby face. :( I'll post pictures when I have time to upload.

I do have a request for the prayer warriors out there! We have some friends who's little boy is undergoing several brain surgeries, and they could use all the prayers they can get! I cannot fathom what they are going through. Specifically, right now, they are needing him to have seizures so they can perform another surgery tomorrow. Please keep Xander and his family in your prayers!
