Blessed beyond words....

Resurrection Sunday is always special but this year took a whole new meaning for me.  Having a child has truly made me stand in awe of my Savior.  During the Easter prayer this year, my mother in law prayed that we may see everyday as Easter and not just set aside this one day to celebrate that He is risen. This can be a challenge with everyday distractions, but I am really going to try to celebrate Him and all He has done in our lives everyday.  I titled this posting blessed beyond words because I just cannot begin to describe what God is doing in our lives at this time.  Even before I was married to Charlie, I knew that I was blessed beyond words to have someone love me the way he does.  The past 3 years of marriage have just been incredible.  I never thought that I could love Charlie more than I did when we said "I do," and wow-how I was wrong.  The layers of love have grown deeper and having Annie multiplied them a thousand times over.  How wonderful that God designed me to be a wife and mother.  They are the absolutely the best jobs in the world...

This verse is very fitting for how I have been feeling lately:
I will exalt you, my God the King;
I will praise your name for ever and ever.
Everyday I will praise you
and extol your name for ever and ever.
Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise;
His greatness no one can fathom.
Psalm 145: 1-3
