The Personal Touch Part 1

THOU GREAT I AM,

I acknowledge and confess that all things come of thee -
life, breath, happiness, advancement,
sight, touch, hearing, goodness, truth, beauty -
all that makes existence amiable.
In the spiritual world also I am dependent
entirely upon thee.
Give me grace to know more of my need of grace;
Show me my sinfulness that I may willingly
confess it;
Reveal to me my weakness that I may know my strength in thee.
I thank thee for any sign of penitence;
give me more of it;
My sins are black and deep,
and rise from a stony, proud, self-righteous heart;.......to be continued

It's been a long time

I'm still not sure if I will continue to do the blog. We'll see. But for now I wanted to update on Jacob's growth. He just had his 15 month appointment. His height and weight are good for his age. Weight: 24.10 oz. Height:31 inches. The doctor is happy with his development. Here is a little story inside our family:
1/29/10
Jacob loves coming into the kitchen and since Mami always tells him that he is not allowed to play with the kitchen covers and frequently gets a reminder by me or Dad to close them. So the other day he came flying into the kitchen as he always loves to do...and I had 3 of the cover doors open all next to each other. And here comes this one year old and closes all 3 one after the other and walks off. At that moment I felt like he was teaching me a lesson "to keep the covers closed".
