Since February....

These past several months have been so very busy for Michael and I. We have been knee deep in school work and working as well. Michael has recently been in transition of jobs. He is now the Administrative assitant to the Youth Minister at Church. I was very busy with the Wofford tennis team and taking Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy at Converse. God has continually showed up in our lives as we have been through some trying time with jobs, etc.
I do not need to forget to mention that my other cousin, Matthew, his wife, Kim, and son, Philip, have a new addition to the family. Braewyn Faith Brooks was born on May 2, 2007. She is beautiful and is bringing our family so much joy. Michael and I are not quite ready for children, but we rejoice in the day if God allows us to have children of our own. We love you guys!
Last night, I probably experienced the most humbling event in my life. Michael was ordained into the ministry. A part of that service was men praying over us. I did not think that I would cry, but believe you me, I did. God was so evident and there as i listened to the words and prayers of many men who have been a big part of my life and Michael's life. One being his dad, who prayed over us first, and the other Matthew, one of two cousins who I respect and have looked up to for all of my life. There were many others, but they were very special. God is so good and I am so blessed to have men who I can look to for guidance.
You will here more later. As for know, God bless.
