I love the bath ring we got Makenzie last week. She is able to sit unassisted and play in the water! It's great!
She is big enough to sit in her seat cover you got her. We love it!
Tonight at SAMs I found the bible I had been looking to get Makenzie. I am sooooooo happy to have it. We love to read to Makenzie and this is the perfect way for Alex and I to start teaching Makenzie to love the Lord.
Tonight I decided to sit up by myself for 30 seconds or so.
Yes, for thoes of you who took any class with Mitzi Ziegner, that is the "link" I am talking about! Except my link tonight was at church and it was kind of a chain of links. I went to a disciple now service tonight and sat with Matt, Lori, Kayler & Chloe.
Here is the begining of my link-
When I was in the 8th grade I went to a disciple now at there house. It was then that they began investing in my life. I went through high school spending time with and becoming a part of their family.
I moved to Lubbock to go to Texas Tech. I went "pot luck" for a roommate and got Haley! (and with Haley came her sister Holly!) The 3 of us started going to and devoted every Thursday night to a college bible study called Paradigm. This biblestudy and worship was lead by a band called Pearl Merchant and pastor John Randalls. I remember this being the time that I really developed a PERSONAL relationship with the Lord. I realized that if I let go of worrying what my roomates or the guys behind me thought my experience at church would be deeper and more intimate with God.
I went to the same churches disciple now Saturday night service last year. I remember that I had just found out I was pregnant and I sat on the gym floor praying this prayer. "God, obviously I have not lived a life that was glorifing to you. Obviously I have not lived the best life I know how, which is a life walking side by side with you. Lord the life inside me is real, it's permanent, it's perfect, it's your creation." I remember this prayer like I said it yesterday. "Jesus, I can't do this alone. Let's do this together. I need you." then I prayed for the next nine months and for Makenzie. I prayed that the Lord would love on her and be her Savior from a young age.
Tonight I stood in the same gym I was in a year ago, with a band that I love to worship with, with songs that remind me of great times in college, with people I love and I thanked God for his perfect plan and his guidance through out my life that has brought me to a perfectly wonderful place.
Happy baby, happy fieance, happy family!
