We are quite fond of the park. It is a blast to go swing, climb and go down slides. Luke and I have wanted to give our kids a swing set (a small version of the park) for a while. We obvisously don't want to pamper and spoil our kids but we want to give them good gifts and we delight to do so. Making our boys happy is just as much a gift to us as it is to them!
I LOVE seeing my kids smile. I ENJOY making them happy! I DESIRE to give them good gifts.
Matthew 7:7-11
"Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. You parents—if your children ask for a loaf of bread, do you give them a stone instead? Or if they ask for a fish, do you give them a snake? Of course not! So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good gifts to those who ask him."
A friend of the family gave us this swingset! And not only was the swingset a free gift, we borrowed the church truck (had to take back roads for fear the truck wouldn't survive the interstate), Kathy and Anthony's pick-up, and 7 strapping young men (Luke's friends from where else than our fabulous church!). In just 3 hours our backyard was transformed.
It was a true JOY to show our boys the new swingset and we are thankful for each and every person who served us.
Thank you so much to everyone who blessed us today! We appreciate and adore your friendship and faithfulness in our lives. It encourages us and spurs us on to be a blessing among one another and hopefully to many others as well.
GOD IS GOOD!
