Selfless Love




I am so proud of my girls.

We stayed home tonight to pass out candy with our hope group. Right before Justin had to leave to work we took the girls down our street to get candy. We went to about ten house.

We started running low on candy to pass out to kids and my sweet girls let me take their candy to give out. I did not take all of it. I had to leave them some.

And then about 9:45 my brother, Daniel, called and asked if I still had candy left. My niece and nephew's mom did not take them trick or treating. And my niece was very upset. I told him no I did not have any candy but to still come over and I would find something to give to my niece, Chloe, and my nephew, Gabriel.

I asked Anika and Ariana if I could give them some of their candy. I told them that their mom did not take them trick or treating.

They said yes.

And then they decided to gave them all THEIR candy!!!

I could not stop telling them how proud I was of them and how happy they were making God.

It was so sweet to see my girls being selfless!!

Even Ariana who is TWO! At two they do not want to share.

I am proud of Anika being a good example to Ariana.

And so proud of them being like Christ to thier cousins.

They just blessed my heart tonight!!

God is Good!! And has blessed me with two amazing little girls!!!




P.S. Sorry no picture of them in their costumes. My camera is still broken so I had to use a disposable camera.

But they were so cute. Anika was a monkey and Ariana was a lady bug.

Update on our family

We have been going through a hard time and still are.

Justin is still not on a regular schedule at work. But please be in prayer that he gets a route soon. There is one route he really wants that is about to go up for bid. Pray that he gets it. It will be really good for him. He will have every other day off and he will also have Sunday off!! And the guy he rides with it also a believer! Please please pray that he gets this route. He has been struggling with temptation while he is on the road. And last night when he came home from this route (the one he wants)he told me he had no temptation. Praise the Lord.

Please pray for me when he is gone. It is at night when he is gone. Pray for our safety at home. And that I can sleep.

Also pray for me I am having a hard time this month. I was suppose to have the baby this month. So it has been hard emotionally for me.

The girls are doing great. Ariana is starting to be rebellious. Pray for consistency with her while Justin is not home. Also pray for them sometimes when Justin is gone they have a hard time with him not here. They miss him really bad.

Please pray for our marriage!! Ask me in person about that.

Please pray with us that God would send an older Godly couple in our lives. And a mentor for me.

Thank you for your prayers and help.

We love y'all!!!
