Chapel Program

On Wednesday mornings at the kids school, they participate in chapel. They sing praise songs, someone/or class provides a message and the kiddos join together to formally learn more about the Lord. Each class gets a chance to lead the chapel service and this week it was Maddox's class!!! Oh my mercy, it was such a precious little service. The kids led the "congregation" in all of the pledges and the school Bible verse and then Maddox got up there, in front of all of the pre-k through 3rd grade classes and parents and led us all in prayer. Melt my heart. Such a brave soul and such a sweet sweet spirit!! His class taught us all about the free gift of Grace. Each child had several speaking parts and Maddox even played the part of Moses. It was epic. Such a wonderful time!

 Here is Mrs. Bolton and her precious class as they were gearing up for the program. I cannot express how amazing his sweet teacher is. We all absolutely adore her and her ability to teach her class and mold their hearts. 

Here is the entire class after the program

The best looking Moses ever. On a super funny note, when Maddox walked on stage with this bear, Harper squealed "Oh hi, Santa" hahahah. Love it

Such an amazing group of kiddos!!!!

Glasses

Paxton received a new fashion accessory!!!

Seriously, this kid could be a model for glasses! Such a handsome little man sporting his new specs! He is amazed and how much more detail he can see, and I am amazed at how well he has taken to wearing them. He is very responsible with them and knows if "they aren't on his face, they are in a case". 
Now, the only thing I don't like about these glasses, is the way they have matured and aged him! Please stay my baby forever pax-max!!!

Catching up is all I seem to do lately. Ha. Well, thansgiving, Christmas have come and gone and the new year is well under way, and there would just be way too much to attempt to catch up on, instead I will just start fresh and hope to throw in a few pictures later on!

Big news in our house...we have a 7 year old! How on earth has time gone so quickly and now our first born, the one who officially made me a mommy, is now a big seven year old! Such a great time. I love this age with him. He is smart, funny, he is able to read (super well by the way) he loves Jesus and is passionate about that, he is independent and loving! I absolutely adore my Maddox boy!
He is still loving 1st grade. He makes friends faster than anyone I have ever seen! He has found a new passion for building with Legos, and he loves to read his adventure Bible that he received for Christmas. He laughs the hardest when being tickled and he gets upset the easiest when he knows he had disappointed someone. He is fiesty, opinionated, and determined that everyone do the right thing. There is very little grey in his world. Things are either right or wrong and it truly bothers him to see someone do something "wrong". 
He is such a good kid and I pray he knows how much he is loved and adored!!!
Oh my Maddox, I pray 7 is the best year yet!!!
