Life.......

This might sound wierd but I've been reluctant to post pictures of my niece and nephew after some comments were made about her. Comments that upset me and had me questioning what the world had in store for her and wanting to protect that innocence that is in her at the moment. But I love my niece and cannot not share photos of them both......they bring me such joy and laughter........

Osian, who's birthday it was on 26th of last month, had his party and sadly managed to fracture his wrist on the bouncy castle......I saw him and he was going around with this face on that said "show me sympathy" while he craddled his arm in plaster.......I had to giggle, I think he may go into the theatre when he's older!!!

Anyway here are some recent photos of them both. I want to try and get one with Osian tomorrow and his plastered arm; he's said that Auntie Emma can decorate it!!!

Osian and his Dad- there is no mistaking that he's Gareth's son!

Busy busy busy

Life has been busy but good recently.....my brother has discovered the wonderful world of e-bay and as I'm the one with the internet access and the laptop he has arranged visits down to my house 'for me to see the kids'(!) while he surfs the net......I have to say I have loved having them down here though, it's been great. The picture below is of Osian having his face painted by Gareth. He wanted to be a bird and so this was the outcome.......it was very funny watching him run around the house saying "tweet tweet" and flapping his arms!!





Lowri on the other hand wouldn't sit still and started throwing a tantrum half way through her face paint, so she merely looks like she's going to war!!!

The second time they came they were banned from using crayons as I'd found drawings up the stairs wall where Lowri had decide to decorate with a crayon. So the next weekend that they came down we went to Greenfield Valley and saw all of the animals and played in the park. I love these following photos!

Osian traversing the perils of the rope bridge!

Lowri making sure another child is not playing on what she wants to play on!!

Osian on his rocking dragon......doesn't have the same ring as a rocking horse does it!!!

Lowri talking to the chickens and turkeys through the fence......Osian was petrified of them while she was trying to pet them!!

"Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart's desires. Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him, and he will help you" Psalm 37:4-5

When we delight in the Lord, we celebrate our relationship with Him. We love to spend time with Him and to share every aspect of our life with Him. We tell Him about our hopes and dreams, and let Him dream with us. God loves that kind of relationship with us. It brings Him joy and makes Him want to give us joy. He wants to give us good things and fulfil our deepest heart's desire. We can trust Him with our dreams and delight in His love.
