STRAWBERRY GRASS





Have I told you lately how much I LOVE this stage Noah is in? Seriously, I love the questions he asks and new perspective that he makes me view God's creation with. Yesterday, we pulled in our driveway and he said "look Mama, strawberry grass!!" Our fields are full right now with these red weeds but to him they were Strawberry Grass. We have such a wonderful time walking in the fields and sitting by the ponds looking and listening. To himm everything is new and exciting. I pray that he never loses this excitement for God's beautiful creation. We picked a huge bouquet of strawberry grass and put it in the house and talked about how even the weeds God made are beautiful........ Hmm.... maybe that's why my eyes are itching and I'm sneezing! ;)
Prayer Requests: Please pray for Noah's Poppy who is going in the hospital Fri-Mon. to undergo a procedure to get his heart back into rythm. Also, please pray for the yardsale for the adoption to go smoothly next Saturday. Thanks Everyone!

I've been asked by 56 people if the strawberry grass is soy beans. I should start saying yes.

Martha, I love the strawberry grass too. Derek and I were just commenting on it the other day when we came around the turn on James Slaughter. It is breathtaking. Noah is so cute. I love the pictures and the red cowboy hat...you're so photo-creative! He's adorable; I'm sorry handsome. I'm also sorry to hear about your dad. I will keep him in my prayers. When is your yard sale? I want to come. Let me know. How's everything else going (hint)?! -Sarah
