Skip the Diamond Earrings...

   Last night my wonderful husband took me out to a simple meal to celebrate Valentine's Day.  We talked about the things that God is doing in our hearts, how it is difficult and sometimes painful to walk the way we should....and we dreamed about going back. Because my dear friends we are heading back to the orphanage in July!!!!!!!
   Yes, I know that Valentines day is not for another week but I wanted to share because the evening was SO much better than chocolates or jewelry. What would happen if we women told our husbands & boyfriends to spend less money but give us an evening of time together talking about how to serve God in our families instead....and then gave the rest away. If we are celebrating love wouldn't it make sense to do so by loving others?
                          Anyone else like this idea???? Write about it, pass the idea on!

“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
Matthew 6:19-21

and just because I think they are so darned cute.....
my girls who are BOTH now growing their hair out for Locks of Love

The ponytail sisters!

Donating their hair..so sweet..3 out of my 4 girlies have done it so far...when my baby gets a bit bigger...we will donate once again..Such a gift and I have saved the thank-you card you get from them..so someday years from now they can still have a clear memory of what they did:)
