Early Birthday Present

About 2 months ago our church put out flyers for a new Bible. A NKJV with Chain Marking, helps a great concordance and several different leather covers. I was in awe. I wanted it but it was 89.95 plus 15.00 to have it thumb indexed. Now I had just bought a 4 version parallel version in the fall so I couldn't stomach the price. I also have about three other Bibles at home in great shape. But Brian and Nique both saw me eyeing the the brochure. So they started saving to get if for my birthday in May. Then church decided to start a Bible Chain Marking class in April. It is recommended to have a new Bible for the class. Last Friday night I got a brand new Bible. It is so pretty and so soft. I think it is has to be one of the softest leathers I have ever felt. It already has chain marking on 20 different subjects. Where I can start at one verse and then it references the next verse. This continues until the topic is done ~ somewhere between between 7-20 verses per topic ~ there is a symbol indicating it is finished. Tomorrow church will start additional chain marking subjects.

I will treasure my early present for years to come.

Mission Statement


I would like our home to be clutter-free, inviting and peaceful. My goal is to decide which tasks I need to do or delegate each day so we can maintain a better, more organized lifestyle. My goals also include providing an environment where my children can learn to be productive and Godly people. I want my family and others to know that this house is one where they can be free to live simply, love deeply and laugh abundantly. I want to be able to invite friends over without having to clean up for three days beforehand.
