{Sunday Snapshot} My Girls


"Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward." Psalm 127:3, ESV

This verse was quoted during church today, and it seemed so fitting with this blog post. Unfortunately it's missing Lovebug, but all of my children truly are gifts from God, an unbelievable "reward." I am in awe of God's love when I look at them ... I can see Him in them so many times throughout each day. And when things aren't going exactly as I'd like, I try to remind myself that through serving my children, I serve Jesus.

I'm actually still in shock that I got this picture today - but Angel wanted to lay with Sunshine and then ASKED (yes I said *asked*) me to take a picture. When Angel asks, I jump and then leap for my camera! LOL. And then I couldn't believe that I actually got both of them looking at me, let alone happily. I mean, just LOOK at Angel's smile ... ahh swoon! I can always snap shots of Sunshine but Angel is much more of a challenge. Ohh, so excited! If I had known I would get a result like this, I would have taken them outside in the grass and gotten some real light instead of the dull window light from the family room. Oh well though - I'll take what I can get - definitely framable!
