Skipping Out For Something Better

Tonight, I was supposed to meet up with classmates for the part one of our 10 year class reunion. I definitely would have been there, but this morning Ashton let me know that it was family night at VBS. Sometimes you just know by the look in your child's eye that certain things are more important to them than others. This was. I decided right away that we would go from 6-8:30 tonight.

We had a blast! The kids were playing in water outside, doing crafts but most of all sharing their love of the Lord by singing, dancing and praying. It was so sweet to witness. :) At the very end, 7 children were baptized in front of over 100 people. I had tears in my eyes. Just to see how excited they all were and their friends for them was a blessing to me! This reminded me of the little things....to be thankful, to not sweat the "small" stuff and just to cherish each moment I get.

I could not be more thankful that Ashton invited us (even if last minute) to be his guests.
