Fingerprint Friday

Growing.
Our kids are growing too fast.
It seems I especially notice it in Jobie.
Changes everyday.
New words.
Walking down the porch steps
without holding mommy's hand.
Playing trucks with his brothers.
Taking leaps off anything he can.

There are times I want to stop him.
Freeze time.
Keep him just like he is.
But, he keeps growing.

So my prayer
for him
and Brookie
and Jakie
and Ezzie
is this:
II Peter 3:18
But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To Him be glory both now and forever! Amen.

Each week pamperingbeki hosts Fingerprint Friday and uses a song by Steven Curtis Chapman as a springboard. Join in. It's a great way to be reminded of God's love.

It all goes so fast, doesn't it? Makes me want to cry.
