Happy Valentine's day!

         I know it has been far too long since I last posted; I promise to do better! On Sunday we celebrated the 1st birthday's of my niece and nephew and while there Scilla surprised everyone with a speech that went like this: "We would like to thank everyone for coming to the party and as you all know, I was in an accident last March; which is why I am in a wheelchair. My husband, Greg, could have left me, but he didn't and  I just wanted to tell my husband, Greg, thank you for taking care of me and being there for me whenever I need you." And then she gave him a gift...

Giving her speech

                                                         Hug and Thank you baby!

The new bling (i.e. the gift she got for him)

     The special moment shared between Scilla and Greg was an emotional one that left smiles upon the faces of everyone. Their love reminds me of 1 Corinthians 13, which says: Love is patient; love is kind

and envies no one. Love is never boastful, nor conceited, nor rude; never selfish, not quick to take offense.
There is nothing love cannot face; there is no limit to its faith, its hope, and endurance. In a word, there are three
things that last forever: faith, hope, and love; but the greatest of them all is love. Their faith has been tested; their love has been tried, but because their faith has no limit and there is nothing their love can't face; they have fought and prayed and God is continuing to bless them and to keep their marriage strong. Oh how great it is to be loved by YOU!

"Walking in FAITH and LOVE..."
