It’s here.
A bittersweet and yet joyful day.
It’s Samuel Josiah’s first birthday.
As I type this post, my mind cannot believe the speed with which this year passed. My heart rejoices over the life and gift we have in our Samuel. The Lord has blessed me so greatly in being his mother.
He is joy.
Thank you Jesus for Samuel. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. — Thank you.
Happy FIRST Birthday Samuel Josiah Martin.
I love you forever.
Mom.

Thank you for stopping by my place.

Thanks for the sweet comment on my blog!
Also would you mind looking at my ministry, Project UNBOUND? I am working to raise 6,000 to fund 1,000 bibles to the persecuted Christians of India, I am only 16 and I need all the help I can get… I have a site in which you can read all about my project, and DONATE! 🙂

What did you do to him in that last picture?! He looks more like 2 than 1 in that one!
Continuing to pray.
Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

~btw I go to stillwater atleast 1-2 times a week. It’s about 45-55 minutes from my home. I would love to meet you and your cuties sometime. Busy schedules…who knows we might bump into each other some day.
You never cease to amaze me! What precious photos, so enjoyed them. Our Granddaughter will be celebrating her 1st in afew days and we are so excited. Your entries always bring a smile, especially your photos!
Just LOVE that last photo!! 🙂 Happy Birthday to your Samuel! 🙂
Happy Birthday Samuel! Blogs are such a fun way to chronicle family history, aren’t they?? It’s birthday season at the Toliver household too – I get a wee bit tired of cake by mid-November….
Happy Birthday cutie pie!!!
Did I mention that he reminds me so much of my grandson Aaron? He’s only about 8 months old, though…
The greatest comfort we can have is that the Holy Spirit Himself is praying for us!
Romans 8:26-27 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
