Our Family Has Grown!

I want to start off with this. Today is a very special day, it is the day I became a big sister. My sissy was born on this day 29 years ago! Colleen, you are in my thoughts today and my prayers always. I hope you have a wonderful year and that God richly blesses you. You are the most amazing sister I can imagine having (and I have chosen a few of my own :P) and I cannot imagine a life without you in it. You have stood by me through everything. You are beyond amazing and I see great things for you in your future. Know that you will always have me in your corner, on your side. Happy birthday Sissy! Love you sooo much and can't wait to see you again soon!! 

Now onto the blog title, I know what you are thinking and that's not what this post is about! While we were getting married, the last of our ratties passed on. So, to celebrate our return home, we adopted four new babies! They are six and eight weeks old and we LOVE them! 

From the top left: Midnight (8 weeks), Peanut (6 weeks), Pikachu (8 weeks) and Dawn (8 weeks). 

I know rats aren't a traditional pet, but they are perfect for our family. =)

1000 Gifts: three gifts from your savior

• Hope. Without him we would have no hope. 
• Grace. It is the only way we can be in His presence. 
• Love. He gives the best example of agape love. We don't have to do a single thing to earn it.
