Undeserving

We have just been swamped lately with all of the excitement of the holiday season. Between parties, breakfasts, dinners, secret Santa, and kindergarten crafts we just haven't stopped much. I won't bore you with all the details of each celebration, but I thought I would share this picture as I type.
I have this serious problem with writing a post without a picture. I can't do it. CAN'T. Or wont? I guess it has something to do with me wanting this for documentation of dates and what our life looks like now?! Anyway, back to the point....
What I really wanted to write and say is that I am just really reminded each day how undeserving and unworthy I am of all the precious gifts I have been given. No matter how big or small they are all a blessing, and I deserve none of it. Nada. God is really working on heart about this. I can't tell you how much I have had to say thank you this past week because with every passing day I see more and more of His blessings. I just encourage you to remind yourself that we are here because a sweet baby came into the world 2000+ years ago. For some reason, now that I have my own baby boy, it is so much more real to me all that Mary went through. To know that this baby would be our king-what responsibility! I hope you take the time to stop and celebrate Him.
Happy Birthday Jesus!

Hi Amber, I am just looking through blogs today while my students watch "The Diary of Anne Frank." My husband and I (and our beautiful little girl) moved to Owasso one year ago, tomorrow. I teach 8th grade at Union and he also works at one of the Union elementaries. I just wanted to say hi! Your little man is SO cute! I love the name Hudson, too. :) Hope to talk with you soon!
