Living

 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. 
 I am that bread of life.
Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead. This is the bread which cometh down
from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.  I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
-Jesus Christ
 The morning's painting...Isn't God amazing!!?
We painted our fridge with chalk board paint! We're loving it.


Take heed, young striplings...
Nieces!! (Oh my word!) With Uncle Paul and Bird Dog one afternoon when we got to watch them.
Cutie Pies...
 (how can little girls warm your heart so much!!?)
 Mumie Love with the mail.
Some precious random guy I saw at Wal-Mart. While I was sitting out in the car, he was looking over this little pink bike so carefully. I love seeing big country boys sheepishly getting things for their girls. So sweet!! Living here, is wonderful...
Daddies are...there are no words.
Morning coffee with Mama and Marth...
Daddy and Bird Dog in the living room. (B.D.'s on a towel-she's since been allowed only on her mat on the floor...poor beast, but allergies will be allergies...
Men's breakfast and construction business meeting one morning. It's so neat to see all their giftings working together.
Morning light on pine woodwork...
 Liam loves to sit next to B.D. and pet her. She has to stay on her mat, so he just sits there and loves on her. It's sooo cute!!! This child is so. so. precious (Guess what, he can say my name!! :) There are some very smitten Aunties here...)
And...the boys saved up and got an English saddle off ebay!!! (The saddle is stunning, and they look very equestrian on it.)
This is seconds before the bid ended. Tension is high. ;)
Me and Marth got our ears pierced! Our earring options are now delightfully diverse! (Pretty creepy having someone thrust an awning through thine ear. ;D  )
Shoes on the steps. Love my boys!!! So much. (Look, there are five pairs up there, how cute is that?) Boots and Sperrys, that's my men....
And here's The Couple!!! :D Looking cute, as ever, and are seen here exchanging quiet evening conversation in the living room. ;D
"...a good ole boy and a pretty little girl...."

Love them so much...they bring joy to our hearts, everyday. (Oh, Mom's been working on her dress, and it's gooorgeous!!! Can hardly wait for y'all to see it, Marth looks like a dream....)
Seeing a little niece picking yellow flowers on a gray day across the yard, and watching her for several minutes, completely herself, pondering and discovering little things in the mustard patch. Remembering how wonderful it was to be a little girl, barefoot and watching a ladybug bend down a leaf. Isn't it captivating, and beautiful?


And then seeing a blue bird perch on an old post, and watching it fly off, it's wings alternatly being grey, then sapphire blue as it's feathers went up and down.

I wonder how the sky is looking down on you today? How are you? Love and miss you.

Thankful to Jesus, for being The Bread of Life, for giving me that eternal life, because of His sacrifice for me. He is good. Do you know Him?

Love,

Adeline, for all the Mortons
