OH MY GOODNESS - TALK ABOUT FALLING IN LOVE...

My grandson was born on January 29th at 12:49pm.  He was 7lbs-13oz and 20.5" tall.  He is absolutely precious!  -I was able to be there during the birth and was totally honored and blessed by it!  --What a different perspective than being the one delivering.  My daughter, Savannah, was a champ.  I was stunned, amazed and proud of her strength.  My son-in-law, Jon, was so very tender and completely attentive to his beautiful bride.  I have to say this was one of the best days of my life.  Little Soren Lind Wallace decided to make his presence known during one of Atlanta's biggest winter "snow messes" in decades!  Miracle of miracles - we all made it to the hospital with the persistence of Jon and his father and the Lord's hand!   During my treatments, weakness and physical issues I concentrated on this day.  I did not know it was to be better than I could have even imagined.  Example: My Joy In Living!!!!!

Ephesians 3:20  The Message (MSG)

20-21 God can do anything, you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams!

I HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH HIM ALL OVER AGAIN...


My heart is so filled and overwhelmed.  First of all my dear God has gotten me through so much--I am so grateful!  Thank you, Lord.  I am healed, and your strength has sustained me.  The glory is Yours.

I must add; however, that my sweet loving husband, Stephen, has shown God's love daily with his strong arms and selflessness.  I am so blessed.  So many times over the last 6-7 months Stephen's love has transcended what I ever believed I could receive from another.  He continually amazed me with his attentiveness, tenderness and over-the-top love for me.  So hard to believe how much he loved me through this illness.  He continually encouraged me during times when I felt low.  He paid attention to my physical limitations when I was foggy and unable to care for the day-to-day details.  Again- soo soo grateful.  I will spend the rest of my life trying to love him back as much as he has loved me and show him that gratefulness.  Thanks to you my Stephen and Happy Birthday!
