Throwback Thursday

Throwback Thursday is such a fun concept.  I enjoyed looking through old pictures to find one for today.  Sigh....my kiddos...how they are growing.  Johnston is now teetering on the 6 foot mark!

In looking through my pictures I am amazed to see how much my kids have loved to dress up over the years.....and honestly....they still do. Even the teens.  I am so glad we have allowed their imaginations to grow as they will like wild flowers.  Free and beautiful!

Throwback Thursday!

Throwback Thursday...remembering these precious moments from the past.  I took this on February 8, 2008 at Tim's mom's house.  Tim was in Georgia Tech finishing his Civil Engineering Degree.  The boys and I went over daily to Tim's mom's house to watch his Grandma who had fallen and hurt herself.  It was a time when God provided our every need.  We sacrificed so Tim could finish school in two years instead of 6 by him not working except during vacation months and the summer.  Tim stayed in his car in the parking garage Monday thru Friday so we could save the gas, travel time could be used for study time, showers and exercise at the Olympic pool on campus, food was prepared and sent with him for the week.  Having the weekends to ourselves.  When he would get home on Friday nights it would be party time.  We locked ourselves in the house and just soaked up our family time, recharging for the upcoming week apart.  We made it through and grew so much as a family.  I will cherish those times.  Little did we know that one year and two days later we would go from having these two munchkins to having twelves kiddos in our home. 

 Give thanks to the God of heaven, for His steadfast love endures forever.
