". . .Next time won't you sing with me?"
So Jovey's newest feat is to sing her ABC's. . .constantly! If we even mention those three letters together, she sings them without fail, loud and proud. She has been singing a lot lately, including "God is so Good," "Jesus Loves Me" and of course, "ABC's." She is also a big fan of any and every theme song to every children's show she watches, especially, "It's a Big, Big World!" We don't mind hearing these songs over and over again. It just serves as little reminders of how the house feels so much more like home with the sounds of Jovey's constant chattering and singing!
. . . who learns more about who God is each day through the beauty and words of her children and the gifts of her husband and beautiful friends!
My Sweet Family
Who Am I?
- Lela Kay
- That's a loaded question. The answer is, I'm not sure, but I do know that it is a continual process and I get excited, frustrated and overjoyed at that process on a daily basis! A few things I DO know: I am a 31 year old mother of two, beautiful girls who has the privilege of being a pastor's wife. I grew up as a pastor's daughter, and never thought it a privilege, but a curse. As I grow in wisdom (not age in years ;-), I have learned that even in the roughest times, it is more than a blessing to be so near to the work that your spouse is engrossed in, all for the sake of Christ and seeing others come to know Him as their Lord and Savior and desire to follow Him more closely. I have the HUGE privilege of staying home with our daughters, Jovey and Laney, and watching most every moment of their young lives unfold before my very eyes. It happens all too quickly and how awesome to be here to be even a small part of their little lives for whom God has great big plans, I am sure!

Jovey, I think someone (I'm not mentioning any names) should buy you a microphone and drum set for Christmas (hmm hmm...) so you can add even more noise and "homeyness" to that beautiful voice of yours. Tell Mommy I know where she can get both items for free!
Ha Ha! Actually, I think santa may be bringing her a guitar/microphone and amp. It will make for interesting music videos, I am sure! But shhh! Mum's the word. Now you know that there is nothing better than the sound of creative music making!
;-) Maybe not one of our better gift ideas, I admit! :-)
On 6:50 on Saturday mornings I would have to agree, but the rest of the time, it's been a great gift idea and the kids enjoy both immensely. We recharge the batteries for the microphone at least once a week! Parker wants me to cut the cord though on the microphone so he can dance and sing "like they do on American Idol" (haha)
