Like a child

It was so neat this past week to have Tracey's family come and stay with us.  One of the most memorable parts for me was how we celebrated July 5th!  We had so much fun on the 4th with the kids that we decided to have a little more fun.  But this time instead of 3 kids, we had 4.  Tracey's dad gave her some money to use however she wanted.  Well, like a child, Tracey's eyes lit up at the fireworks stand with this new found money.  She went around everywhere finding little things that she wanted to blow up or let the other kids help her blow up!  It was special to see that excitement in her eyes, that God-given part of us that loves to receive surprising little gifts from our fathers and share them with others.  So the best part for me was not the bright lights of the fireworks but the light in her eyes.  Happy July 5th to me!
