We're home now after one of the sweetest gatherings I've ever experienced as a believer. About 75 people from ABC converged on our pastor's home and circled around it to pray. We began by praying at each of the corners of his house and went around the circle from there. It was such a sweet time as we focused on praying protection and blessing over Pastor Joe and his family. They are such a sweet family with hearts to serve the Lord through the people of ABC and the surrounding community. We are blessed to be part of such an amazing group of people.
On a lighter note, the boys were all very good during the prayer time, which is saying a lot, considering we were literally standing right in fron of the swing set and slide. Ayden mentioned a few times that the slide was wet from rain, Landon had to be passed between Jesse and I until he settled in on his daddy's shoulders, and Camden had the hiccups...but all things considered - they were great! We finished the evening at O'Charley's (you know, were kids eat for FREE!) before coming home. Once we got all the kids into bed, Jesse and I settled in to watch Game 2 of the World Series (ok, mostly Jesse - I just don't care since the Cardinals aren't in it). A few minutes later, out waltzez Big A with his laptop toy saying he really needed to to do his homework. I sent him back to bed and then went to peek in on him a few little while later. He was sitting at the end of his bed, in between the mattress and footboard, with his computer propped up, still working on his "homework." Oh well....at least he was in bed and being quiet...some battles aren't worth fighting, and his daddy and I got a good chuckle out of secretly watching him.
Night, all!
