treasures

good words I read this morning with Anna: 

"Of all the incredible things God made, which do you think is the most amazing?

Is it the Grand Canyon? Or the Milky Way? What about the North Pole? Or Mount Everest? Or sunsets? Or starfish? Or the cheetah? Do you know what God says is the best, most magnificent thing he has ever made? YOU."  -Sally Llyod Jones Thoughts That Make Your Heart Sing 

"You will be my own special treasure...though all the earth is mine." (Exodus 19:5) paraphrase 

two old favorite pictures of the treasures God has given to us.... 

and to keep it real...here are two selfies that the kids took recently.  When I asked them to take a picture of me with some friends, they were sneaky and pushed the button on the phone that reversed the image to take a picture of themselves instead.  Little rascals. :)
