School & Eagle Wings

Logan and I both started back to school today.  He's having a MUCH better night than I am....being that I have my first quiz on Wednesday and I have 1124 lines of a poem to read and several pages of literature and he does NOT have ANY homework!  I want to be in 4th Grade again.

Logan had a great day at school.  I believe he has, once again, been blessed with THE perfect teacher!

As we started our journey to school this morning, the Lord layed on my heart the words of one of my favorite songs, "Find Your Wings", which goes perfectly with Logan's class mascot - the EAGLES.  God is so great and His touch is everywhere. 

I pray that each of you and your children will be reminded of this verse as you go about your crazy busy days.

  "They will soar on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.  Isaiah 40:31"

Find Your Wings
by
Mark Harris

It's only for a moment you are mine to hold
The plans that heaven has for you
Will all too soon unfold
So many different prayers I'll pray
For all that you might do
But most of all I'll want to know
You're walking in the truth
And if I never told you, I want you to know
As I watch you grow

I pray that God would fill your heart with dreams
And that faith gives you the courage
To dare to do great things
I'm here for you whatever this life brings
So let my love give you roots
And help you find your wings

May passion be the wind
That leads you through your days
And may conviction keep you strong
Guide you on your way

May there be many moments
That make your life so sweet
Oh, but more than memories

I pray that God would fill your heart with dreams
And that faith gives you the courage
To dare to do great things
I'm here for you whatever this life brings
So let my love give you roots
And help you find your wings

It's not living if you don't reach for the sky
I'll have tears as you take off
But I'll cheer as you fly

I pray that God would fill your heart with dreams
And that faith gives you the courage
To dare to do great things
I'm here for you whatever this life brings
So let my love give you roots
And help you find your wings

And...the Summer is GONE.....

What a slacker I have been ALL SUMMER LONG.  To say I am disappointed with my self & my blogging -  or rather the lack thereof - would be an understatement.  Logan and I had a fabulous summer full of long days and late nights.  I didn't take the time to do much of anything, knowing that for the next two years my life is going to be one big BLURRRRRR.  I start SFA on the 29th and with 17 hours of college classes, 40 hours of work per week, and spending time with Logan I knew that I needed to focus all my energy and attention on my VERY understanding son.

I have made a commitment.  I am going to take a picture of Logan EVERYDAY for the next year and blog about the day.  This will be my journal of all my blessings in the mist of so much chaos that is soon to come. 

I hope your summer has been as fabulous as ours and I pray that the coming year will be filled with a lot of family time, love, and memories.  And Off to FOURTH grade Logan goes!  I know it's going to be a fabulous year for our family.
