Olivia is turning seven


Seems like we just got done with one birthday and now we are on to the next. Olivia is turning seven on Saturday. Today we are having a surprise birthday party with all the family. I think she will be surprised when she comes home from school today. Olivia is truly a blessing and definitely our prayer warrior in the family. I love to hear her pray right before bed as she prays truly from her heart. Just the other night she prayed, "Jesus thank you for mommy and daddy not just because they are a good mommy and daddy but most of all because they love You." Wow! She is truly incredible. (Sorry, I like to brag on my kids!) Jen and I are no where near perfect parents but as long as they love God and put others first, we feel that we are doing a somewhat decent job.

What happened to the little girl named Olivia that I used to know? Wow, she's looking older. It's okay to brag about your kids, we need to let them hear us tell other people how great we think they are. Tell Olivia Happy Birthday from Pastor Keaton's mom. Hope she remembers me.

She looks so much older than when I last seen her! She is so pretty. Kali was just talking about her princess party from a few years ago. She had a blast. Tell everyone we said HELLO!!!!
