The Arizona Malloy girls!

Aislinn and Maddy

How Aislinn likes to smile for the camera.

Finally Pictures from John, Amy, and Madeleine's visit!!

So much fun. Aislinn was grabbing at Maddy and Maddy would cry and then Aislinn would cry. Oh cousins!

Beautiful Christian Sister

by Maya Angelou

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ

that a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say...'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean livin'

I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say...'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.

I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say...'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.

I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say...'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.

I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say...'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,

My flaws are far too visible but, God believes I am worth it.

When I say...'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...

I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say...'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,

I'm just a simple sinner who received God's good grace, somehow!
