A Few of My Favorite Things

In the mornings when both my kiddos come and get in my bed and we all cuddle...


Hard working husbands...



Watching Kane have fun with his friends...





Sweet little bodies...



Birthday wishes...





Special time with Daddy...



and those times when you get to just lay back and relax...



These are just a few of my favorite things.

Why I changed the name of my blog...

I have been thinking a lot lately about my relationship with God. I have been thinking about how he has blessed me with so many wonderful things. My husband, children, a new home, and so many other things. I got to thinking how a lot of the time we think to ourselves "look at all of these things that I did," but the reality is that we didn't do anything. God did. Everything I have, God gave me. Everyone that I love, God gave me. "All that is Good" in my Life is from my heavenly father.

"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." James 1:17

My prayer for myself and my family is that we will remember this and be thankful to God for all that we have. I hope that this blog will be a way for me to share with all of our friends and family the "good and perfect gifts" that God pours out on us daily.

So, you see, this is still where you can come to get the scoop on The Helder 4's Adventures, but now I just want to make sure that God gets the glory for all of the fun, because let's face it, he is "All That Is Good!"

A few things that are Good...

baby toes...

brothers and sisters...

hulk hands...
