29 September 2005
i was watching my sister's kids a few weeks back. they and my kids wanted to help me with the yard work. here are the promised pictures (just a few days late!!!)
then, after they raked and swept up the leaves, they wanted to toss them in the air.
on the 22nd, a group of ladies and kids went to apple charlies. it was a wet, rainy day, but we still had a lot of fun. thankfully the hayride had a canopy on it so that we could still enjoy it.
auburn really gets into her spaghetti.

praise: my brother-in-law's appointment with his neurologist went well this morning. doctor said everything looks good considering all that jon has been through. even said that God has been good to him. such a praise.
prayer: my parents and the dawsons are still in africa. please pray for them as they will be out of the country until next friday (7th).
playfulness: landon has been asking a lot of questions in regards to spiritual matters, specifically sin and salvation. last night dave and landon were discussing the sin in his heart. this morning, landon got up and went and found dave and asked "daddy, can you pray that Jesus will take the sin out of my belly?" he just told me that the sin wasn't in his heart anymore but that Jesus was. i'm not jumping at that as a salvation decision. but i do believe the Spirit is working in his life and that thrills me more than words can tell.
auburn, on the other hand, is growing more defiant and strong-willed with each passing day. her allergies and feeling miserable is not helping the matters any as she is easily upset when she's "under the weather". i have to say though, landon's tenderness is helping me not to feel as desparate as when landon started showing his sinfulness. i know that if we keep instructing her to the best of our ability and trust God to do the work, we're doing the best thing for her. please continue to pray for both of them in regards to their relationship with God.
