Surprise

Have you ever had a surprise birthday party? Has your husband surprised you with a weekend get away? Do you even like surprises? My mother surprised me with a surprise birthday party when I turned fourteen-years-old. A slumber party with all of my closest friends. Surprises do just that, you’re surprised. Has God taken you by surprise? Answered a prayer that was just a desire, a want that hasn’t even been spoken, yet God knows your heart and he gives your desires. Here’s my wish he answered, I have two married sons, four healthy grandson, and JoAnna my daughter-in-law becomes pregnant. I don’t dare speak aloud that I would love a granddaughter. Finally the day comes, sonograms and nestled so sweetly in her mother’s womb. No longer a surprise I am so thankful God gave me my secret wish and surprised me, that a baby girl. My other daughter-in -law has a daughter also. Two granddaughters, one from each son.  Please hear me, I love my grandsons, but the girls are the cherry on top of the banana split

Trust in the LORD and do good; Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, and He will do it.… Psalm 37: 3-5

I am loved by God, the alpha, the omega, the beginning, the end. According to the Bible, I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I am a saint who sometimes sins. I believe that Jesus is God's son and that He died on the cross to give me eternal life. I am married to my high school sweet heart Doug. I have been blessed by two adult sons Randy and Dale, who are married and I have six grandchildren Christian, Seth, Ethan, Hunter, Sabrina and Emerson. I became a nurse as an adult. I have had an amazing career and give all the glory to God.

    Yes! Girls are so special. I would love to have another Grandson some day if it is God’s will. I have 1 grandson, almost 18, who was my first grandchild, and 1 grandson who is 3. We have 6 granddaughters, and another granddaughter expected in June! 🙂 ❤

    I love surprise parties! My hubby threw me a surprise party for my 50th birthday, and he done an amazing job. I had no clue! He is pretty awesome like that. Always full of surprises. As you know, he planned a surprise birthday getaway weekend for me this year! 🙂
