Happy B-day to my cute......

Trumpet playing BOY!!!!!!

14 yrs ago as we headed to the hospital, I told your dad that if I had to deliver on my B-Day that surely we would get a girl....but God had a different plan - even though your aunt Jan had already bought a white frilly dress for you!!! After getting to hold you and kiss your little face I decided that you were a keeper and haven't thought about a girl since!

Jeremy you have brought so much life to our house....you have been blessed with a brain that just doesn't stop....when you were younger you were all the time asking what things said and what different words meant -which at times I had to stop and think to explain it to you!

Some funny things you said when you were younger:

When you were around 3 or 4 we were up at Ruth's and around that time you had a habit of not listening when I would tell you to do something...We were outside and I hollered at you an told you to come here and you acted like you didn't hear me...Ruth said -Linda maybe you need to get his hearing checked and you piped up and said -No mom - I've got sound in my ears!!

Another time when you probably about the same age - We were coming home from Vincennes one night and as we passed GPC you said - Is that New York City over there?!...most kids wouldn't have even known that there was a NYC - let alone associate it with the lights of GPC!!

Jeremy - We love you very much and I pray that God will bless you with the best year a 14 yr old can have.......

Love, Mom

Women of Joy 2010

3 Days...2 Nights...1 Purpose

On April 16-18th, fourteen ladies from church headed to Louisville to the Women of Joy Conference. The speakers were Sarah Paline, Antia Renfro, Becky Tirabassi and Liz Curtis Higgs. All were great speakers. Steven Curtis Chapman and Micheal W Smith were in concert Saturday night also. Charles Billingsley was the worship leader again this year...he does a super job.....love his laugh!! Would love to have him at our church a couple Sundays!!!!

I think all were blessed and had a great time.

Unfortunately Lisa's weekend was cut short due to her receiving the call that her father-in-law, who was fighting cancer was really low and she wanted to go be with the family. So Melody took Lisa home Saturday evening. He lost the battle and went to be with his Lord on Sunday.

The sea of 15,000 women.......and about 5 men!
