Mother's Day Gift

I purchased one of those clay frames and got it all set up and pushed Elisha's hand and foot into it. How priceless. I may have Tim take a pic and add it here later.

Tim surprised me with a beautiful basket- a Mother's Day basket- It is so beautiful- Thank you for thinking of me, honey!!

We played a song a church today that has a flute solo that I've always done, so, I reentered the worship team today. It felt great to be back. So, while I was playing my flute on the first song, Elisha was in his Papa's arms worshiping away. Did I mention Papa was on stage singing with the team also? It was great. I had so many folks come up and tell us what a blessing it was to see Elisha clapping and worshiping with us. And again, he was great. Lord, we pray he always desires to be in your house worshiping you and praising your name.

Tonight, as I was rocking him to sleep, he sat up, reached up and put a hand on either side of my face and looked very intently into my eyes. Very gently, very quietly, he said, "Mama." He looked at me a second longer and then laid his head back on my chest. (Are you tearing up? I was- it was hard to keep the emotions in check. I wanted to kiss him all over and sing hallelujah- what an indescribable feeling, this love one feels toward ones children.)

Yes, sweetie, I am your Mama, and all because God brought you into our lives, I get to celebrate Mother's Day today.

I keep hearing Elvis in my mind lately............. I can't help falling in love with you.......
