sauvignon jacob






O how I love our son.  Lately he has been quite a handful with the move to Peru and with four molars moving into his mouth, yet my love for him continues to grow each and every day.  When I found out that I was pregnant I never imagined how much the Lord would teach me through this flaming bundle of energy.  Each day as I see him grow and learn and just become a little person, my love for him deepens (especially now that i get kisses and hugs!).  I can't even begin to imagine how God sacrificed His only son for me, a sinner.  it just blows my mind.  I guess what I am trying to say is that the Lord has really been showing me how much He loves me lately.  Jesus loves us all!

So I've been clicking the 'next blog' link (upper left) lately and finding all kinds of cool people.

First I saw that you guys are in Peru - which I've been to twice - totally life changing experiences (in fact I met my wife there, she isn't Peruvian, but came on the missions trip with us). Then I say that you are a follower of Jesus - me too. And then, I read that you are learning the same things I've been learning lately through my beautiful children. It is hard to imagine that the crazy love we have for our children is a mere fraction of God's love for us. Kids are a true blessing and they open an avenue to deeper understandings of God - I love my boys.

Glad I found you adn God bless - I'd love to hear why you moved to Peru.
