I have seen this on others blogs but did not know how to get it to mine. I did it and hope it stays. Even though right now nobody comes to my blog but me. My kids really need to check it out since it is mostly about them lol.
I found an old friend by just clicking (you really have to be careful about where you click) but I found theAgees blog an I am so happy about that. I need to get her email and really find out what has been going on in their lives, and let them in on ours. Amy and I both have wondered and wondered where they went. So happy.
Mike and I are cleaning and preparing for Thanksgiving tomorrow. I always cook a big turkey, I have since my kids were little. That was/is my holiday tradition more so than anything to do with Christmas. Mike always does the rest of the cooking. He is good at it so I'm not gonna stop him! He cleans as he cooks so there is usually no big mess later.
Amy and her bunch should be getting back from the beach in a short while. She usually comes over early on TG day and helps me decorate my house up for Christmas.
I have made a big start on my gift list so far. I only buy for the grands mainly.
I also have some sewing to do that is a high priority. Baby gifts, Christmas and just regular sewing. I really should get off this pc and go sew.
later....
Just me talkin' 'bout My Taste of Heaven

Jesus Jesus Jesus, there is no sweeter name I know
My oldest grandchild, Jacob 7, asked Jesus to come into his heart. Praise God Whom All Blessings Flow. It was just beautiful the way it all came about. Jacob has been under conviction for a while now. He lives in a very Christ centered home and has been taken to church all his life. His school has an after school program once a week where they study the Bible and talk about Jesus and who He is and why He had to die.
On their way home from school that day Jacob told his mother about that day's class and what they talked about. He said the leaders had asked if anyone felt like they needed to step out of the room and speak with one of them one to one, to raise their hand. He said, but I didn't raise my hand. Then he asked her how would he know when to ask Jesus into his heart. She told him not to worry about it that when Jesus wanted come into his heart he would know and would have no doubt.
Well later that night after they had bed time prayer and he was supposed to be asleep, he came out of his room and up to Amy and said "Mom I just prayed and I asked Jesus into my heart". (insert tears of joy here). She talked with him for awhile and then they prayed together. I hate it that Kevin had to work late that night.
Jacob talked with his children's director at his church the next night, on a Wednesday, he prayed again with Jacob and his parents. Then on Sunday, Nov 2, he went down before his church and publicly professed his faith in Christ. (insert more tears of joy).
Later we went out to eat and I told him "Jacob, do you know what the angels in heaven did when you prayed in your bed and asked Jesus to come into your heart?" He said no and I told him that at that exact moment all the angels in heaven sang ALLELUIA and rejoiced, Luke 15:7.
I am so happy for him and proud of the parents Amy and Kevin are. He is going to baptized into his church on Nov 23, I'll post pictures for sure.
