So proud!

Sorry for the multiple posts but with 6 kids it's bound to happen!

I was so proud on Sunday! Camden gave his heart to the Lord at an early age. This is something I have always prayed for my children. Since the time they were born or since the time I knew they were mine, I have prayed that, "my children will come to know You at an early age and will desire to serve You all the days of their life." I can praise the Lord for answering that prayer for three out of six thus far. Jordyn was four when she told me she wanted to ask Jesus into her heart. Alexis was three when she, completely on her own, said, "Mommy, I want to ask Jesus in my heart, all of Him." Camden was five and made his decision during a Sunday School class at church.

The girls had since been baptized but Camden declared he wasn't ready for that. We had talked to him about what it means and that is something he should do, but that he didn't have to until he was ready. So a little while ago he decided it was time. Sunday our son was baptized! It does my heart good to see the goodness of the Lord in my children. Our God is good and His mercy is everlasting! Thank you, Lord!


Camden said yesterday, "I will never forget Sunday, May 24, 2009."
