Country Woman's Journal

About Me

Hello & welcome to my blog! My name is gloria. I live in an old farmhouse on a beautiful hill overlooking God's green earth... along with my husband of 17 yrs and our 10 children. I enjoy the simple pleasures of country living. I love the Lord and desire to live a life pleasing to Him. This blog is a "journal" of sorts where I will be sharing my thoughts and ramblings, and occasional mishaps too. :) I hope you enjoy reading. God bless!

Samuel's birthday! - 09:08, Tuesday, January 13, 2009

It is SO hard to believe that our son Samuel has turned 11 yrs old! It seems like yesterday we brought him home from Guatemala!  He was just 2 mos shy of turning 5 yrs old when we adopted him and here he is celebrating his 11th birthday!!  Samuel is a wonderful young man. He continues to be a gentle soul, the champion of the underdog who has a very tender heart. Samuel also loves the Lord so much and really loves the Word of God. I will often find him in a corner or quiet place just reading his bible. In my mama heart I wonder if the Lord will raise him up to be a pastor......... he has such a heart for the word of God and really does love Jesus so much........  this boy has blessed our family in many ways.  

Samuel asked for his favorite dinner tonight..... spaghetti and meatballs........

 

 

Rachel and I baked him a double chocolate cake..........

 

 

May the Lord bless you & keep you Samuel, and may His face continue to shine down upon you.......

Love,

mom

Happy Birthday Samuel. What a beautiful post and handsome young man. Isn't it great when we see our children developing and growing in the Lord. We can see so clearly the Lord's work in his life...and may God continue to work and make himself real not only to Samuel but to all your children.

Blessings dear friend,
Connie

Gloria, I have not had the opportunity to read here so I have enjoyed "catching up" with your family. I love the pictures and hearing your heart.
