“Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD,
         The fruit of the womb is a reward.
 Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,
         So are the children of one’s youth.
 Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them;
         They shall not be ashamed,
         But shall speak with their enemies in the gate.”
Psalm 127:3-5

What I have been up to…

GraciousMay and Snugars has just debuted another beautiful Spring line. Over 9,000 pictures have been snapped in the last 3 weeks as I pictured all the new selections and I finally get to share a few shots! :)
The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

I had too much fun picturing this lovely little lady today:

“That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth;

 That our daughters may be as pillars, Sculptured in palace style;”
Psalm 144:12

My Week in Pictures{Project 52-week 6}…

Each week is filled with blessings from the Lord and great excitement… sometimes you just have to step back and take look at the previous week to see them all! Here is my week:

A very helpful painter…

Green Grass…

Freshly baked Oatmeal Cherry Cookies baked by a lovely sister…

” How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”

Romans 10:14-15

Quite Random but this is Grace…

No, it is not her birthday or graduation or even her half birthday but rather poor Grace mentioned that she has been left out of many most posts lately and she is beginning to feel quite extremely hurt!  SOoOo, this is for you, Grace! You may wish you had never mentioned that you thought I was purposely excluding you but at least you know I love ya!
Born 5 years after me, taking my spot as the youngest child, a title which she possessed for a brief 1.5 years (I still hold the longest youngest Leake child record :) ). So, I can safely say that anything productive she has learned stemmed from me :) That may be why she loves me so much!! ;)

Say hi to Grace =)

One extra special post just for Grace!

This is what happens when you leave your camera in the reaching distance of your younger sister:
 
“But as you abound in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all diligence, and in your love for us—see that you abound in this grace also.” 
2 Corinthians 8:7

Project 52 {week 3}

Week 3, Jan 15-21, of Project 52
Last week was made a little sweeter with my sister’s delicious homemade doughnuts…
And a little warmer with a substancial amount of coffee!



And then comes the snow to make last week a little funner!

My house =)

And  to make last week a little more enjoyable, a large amount of baking!
“Therefore, brethren, we are debtors—not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.  For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.”
Romans 8:12-17
