Happy Birthday to Hope, Dennah and Faith. I tried to find some up to date pics of them together, but these were the best I could find, from Christmas. These were pics of us all together with Dad and Mom (Mark was there at another time.) Most of you should be able to pic everyone out. If not, just ask. Hope's birthday was the 13Th, Dennah's was yesterday the 23rd, and Faith's birthday is today the 24Th. Aunt Leona's birthday and Grandma Williams also have March Birthday's. Busy month for our family.
I am starting to find out, I may be a monthly blogger. I have pics I want to show you, but I haven't taken them off a water proof camera we have. And there have been things I would tell you, but at the time I did not get to the computer. God has been blessing and helping us. Jason has had several services to preach at, and although we miss our church, it has been good meeting new people. I think their are people who think about, where all, we can go pastor...... But we must be careful to listen to God's leading. There is much work to do here in Mannington. In the church and out of it. We are so thankful for your prayers!!
Jason had work and nightly classes last week, I felt very lonely and out of sorts last week, when he was gone from morning 'til night, and the kids really miss him. He will have some extra classes again in May. ( Welding) This week they have changed his schedule from 4 ten hour days to five eights. The guys were not too happy about that. And they go in an hour later too. Jason is an early riser and likes to get his work in early, so this is different for him.
Last week I went out and bought flooring for our bathroom, got a good deal and someone gave us the glue to put it down. As soon as Jason gets the floor glued, everything can go in. We use what little free time we have to work on our house and it is exciting to see it come together.
OK, so I will take a moment to tell you the kids are doing well. I say kids, but my, they are both growing up on me. I noticed last week that Matthew puts his arms around my neck now to give me hugs. Now that is a sign of growing taller than Mom, if I ever saw one. Not yet though. And Denae is changing too. She is finding it hard to decide if she is Daddy and Mommy's little girl or if she just has to be a Big girl now. People are noticing changes in them and I am preparing myself. Sad and excited all at the same time. They both have district quizzing this weekend, they would appreciate your prayers. Denae and Matthew are both singing for Talent and Mathew is playing a piece on the piano, " Here I Am To Worship/ I Can Sing of Your Love Forever". He has been working very hard on it. They are both doing a "Stick" drama presentation at Easter with 4 other kids. They will do it to the song, "Arise My Love". So, yes, they are active. And we are flying through our last days of 7Th and 4Th grade schooling. yeah.
I am REALLY enjoying the sunshine and spring weather here. Although it is a little cool it is so much better than....COLD!! We miss you and keep you in our prayers. Stay in touch, because we love it! I send our Love, For The Moore's ~ Denise
