Mother's Day

This Sunday is a special day...Mother's Day. This will be the 27th Mother's Day that I've experienced in my lifetime, but there will be something a little extra special about this one. Not only do I get to celebrate my Mom, but my wife is a new mother this year to our wonderful son Trey. Technically, she was a mother at this time last year, but this year it "really counts".

I can't say enough wonderful things about my wife. She's been above and beyond what I could have ever asked for as a mother to our child. She's loving, caring, nurturing, and so supportive of everything to do with Trey. I loved her more than anything before, and now she's captured my heart like I never could have imagined. To see her with her baby is enough to make you cry. There's just something special about a mom and child. I love you Ashley! You're a FANTASTIC mom!

And to my mom, all I can say is thank you. Thank you for being there for me through my whole childhood and even now. I couldn't have asked God for a better mother than I have. She's a wonderful loving person and has given me above and beyond what I have ever asked for. She's truly been a blessing and I love her very much!

Thank you Lord for a wonderful Christian mom and a beautiful and loving Christian wife. Let me never forget or underappreciate what I have in both.

Until next time...

Busy Weekend

Boy do I have a busy weekend coming up! Tonight the Melodyaires are at our usual hangout...the Classic Events. We'll have the Roy Knight singers with us tonight, featuring probably the best songwriter in southern gospel music, Sandy Knight.

We then get a small break during the day saturday before heading out at midnight to sing in Advance, NC Sunday morning. Should make for fun sleep on the bus and fun ride home Sunday afternoon. That's ok, though, we love the road trips, and hopefully the Lord will do something special at these concerts. You just never know when God will show up in a mighty way at a church and really touch people's hearts. Those types of services are when it makes all the long trips, long hours, and time away from family worth it. Hopefully this weekend will be one of those times.

Until next time...
