Fingerprint Friday

I was reminded by a friend today,
who lost her 24 year old son to cancer this year,
to slow down and enjoy my kids.

So, I'm taking her advise.
I let the two little boys help me make lunch.
And asked them to put stamps
on our Christmas cards.

I'm giving them extra smiles
And hugs.
And kisses.

Just trying to stop for a moment
and soak up the blessings.
John 1:16
From the fullness of His grace
we have all received one blessing after another.

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 presence.
