Magnified

Okay.
Story of my Life. I’m getting a wee bit tired of that post title. Maybe I’ll shake 2018 up a bit and try something new?!

There’s one verse and the chorus to a song I heard today is stuck in my head...


Oh God be greater, than the worries in my life

Be stronger, than the weakness in my mind 

Be louder, let your Glory come alive
Be magnified

(chorus)
Take it all, take it all away
Magnify no other name
Open up, open up my eyes
To you, to you


So that will be today's post title and my thought for the day.
Join me in inviting God to be be greater in your/my life than anything else?
Sometimes I just need to remind myself to do that...

Oh, magnify the LORD with me,
and let us exalt his name together!
Psalm 34:3


My sister in law and I made FOUR BATCHES of caramel one day this past week...!!! What fun!!

Thursdays now are back to co-op... this time 23 kiddos in my living room! It’s lively, to say the least!! We’re studying US geography. There are art projects each week to correspond with different points of American history... good times! Lots of crazy! You can pray for us on Thursday’s... 😉 Also my kiddos and I have to move aaalllllllll the furniture out of the living room and dining room to set up enough workspace tables! It’s quite hilarious, really! Who knew co-op could be so involved?!?! 😂

And this! Oh my!! So very exciting!! The kiddos had the kind of wild idea that we could fill a suitcase with LEGOs for the children’s home in India when we go... well we feel exceedingly blessed by you all who pitched in and made this happen!!!!! This is our BIGGEST suitcase- weighing in at 40.8 pounds! Amazing!! Our kiddos are soooo impressed! I want to say a specific thank you to the children at the Pathway School in Ohio and the children in the New Life Sunday School classes who voted to take on this project this year. You guys are so amazingly sweet, and your desire to bless other children with something you know brings YOU so much joy is a blessing to me!! ❤️

Happy week to you!!
