There is this group of people that my family has the privilege to get to know, each of them have come into our lives through the years one by one, surprising us with their unique personalities and quirks. Sahara, the first one to come along I think came first on purpose because she knew she had to be the oldest in order to be the boss. She surprises me with sudden deep conversations like the time she explained that people who don't know Jesus will go to Hell and people who do will go to Heaven; and we don't want to go to Hell....very informative. One day this will be old news but she is missing a tooth and will leave Kindergarden proudly singing the motto of many five and six year olds, 'All I Want For Christmas is My Two Front Teeth'. Welsey came next...what a character!

Five kids, and that's just the one's I'm related to. There are many more kiddos in my life that I adore and each time I am with them I wonder, who are these people? What will they become? Will they grow up to make a difference in their worlds? Will their hearts be hard to the gospel? I pray they will all grow to know their savior, to bring their Creator joy by joining His family and bring Him glory by living lives pleasing to Him. I keep getting to know all these kids as days go by, as they grow older and eventually will probably be too cool to talk to me but I will keep praying and keep wondering, 'who are these people!' All the while hoping that they figure out who they are in these difficult years of growing up, and know that whoever they are isn't a mistake but an opportunity to shake their world. And eventually we will all be saying, I knew them when...
Heidi- good descriptions of all of them!! What could I add??? Isaiah still has a picking "problem", if he is the least bit tired/bored he will pick to death any spot he can find on your neck. Nice! He drives us crazy with that while riding around in the autos. And when he is going to sleep by himself he pulls his shirt us and rubs his chest...whatever works! Wesley...can't really add anything short, except that he needs something to keep him busy or a big yard to go play in!! He still loves doing his letters and has started on the Telugu alphabet. You're right on with Bria and the looks, if only we had the one she gave Wesley in the car right before we left...priceless! Well, thanks for yet another reason to get on the internet!
ReplyDeleteIs there a way we can print that out for the kids scrapbooks!!! I love it, how fun would that be for them to read when they are older- you completely nailed each one of them. I think that the only things I could add are that Sahara is the clutz, Bria is the ballerina and Tirza is our little cuddly koala bear.
