Where does the time go?

Today...September 9, 2015 Kalebh will play his first school sports game. This is a day he has dreamed about since he was 4. He would go and watch the Lockney Longhorns play. They would be kids he knew and that were in our youth group. We would sit in the stand and he would watch the game...very intently. He would wait for the cheerleaders to throw candy into the stand...and his time has come. He will go out with the Lockney Shorthorns. He will take the field and he will play his little heart out...just like he did when Landon Cotham played, Graden Long, Mason Ragland, and Landry Kidd...To name a few. He loved those boys and still looks up to each of them.

Kalebh was so excited last night I had to pull out some all natural sleeping aid. He couldn't go to sleep...but, once he did he slept great. And this morning he bounced right out of bed ready to get dressed and put on that Jr. High Jersey (That smells to high heavens I'm sure) But, none the less he is so excited.

 The only person I think that is more excited than Kalebh is his sweet Daddy. The only thing better than it being the 1st Jr. High game...is it's against Floydada! So here we go friends...Beat those Winds!

But, honestly how many times in our lives are we so excited about world things? How many times do we "lose" sleep because we are excited about things happening in our lives and our world? As I would like to make the point...we need to get this excited bout God's plans for us...at the same time I think these things are what God uses to mold us into who he wants to be. I don't know about you but I know God is working on me daily. He speaks to me through my sweet kids. And he shows me things that make me a better Mom, wife and child of the king. So, lets not get lost in the day to day life. Lets get excited about the big things...and the small things...lets make a difference in others lives and for the kingdom in the big things and the little things...lets go and glorify God in ALL that we do!

Friends, as I sit as a mom in the stand I will be a nervous wreck because that is what you do when your kids are out on the field but I will be so excited because I have seen first had the excitement in my sons eyes! I cannot wait!

Love to all!
