With the new Lady M in the family, we are all falling in love... head over heels in love. She is now getting close to four months old, has found her hands and absolutely loves music.

We had Connie and Rick Justus visiting last week. They have been missionaries in Japan for 30 years and just moved back to the states. On a tour of the US to visit relatives, they squeezed in a stop with us here in north Texas. They had lunch with my mom and two brothers and then drove to our house for dinner and spending the night before heading to Oklahoma City. The house was literally filled with peace from the moment they arrived. Do you know that saying about entertaining angels unaware? Well, it was beautiful. Dinner in Southlake and deep conversation sharing our lives until after midnight. We broke our fast with old fashioned oatmeal and deep conversations.
Along the way Rick mentioned music being special...that sound was woven through the bible and God was not a silent God as He created music filling our world from our voices to the voices of the waterfalls, the birds, the wind etc. You can find verses throughout the bible with singing and music. Did you know Solomon wrote over a thousand songs... 1 King 4:31-32 "[Solomon] was wiser than any other man, including Ethan the Ezrahite --wiser than Heman, Calcol and Darda, the sons of Mahol. And his fame spread to all the surrounding nations. He spoke three thousand proverbs and his songs numbered a thousand and five."
I decided that this was worth investigating and reading more. I paint to music. I play music. I love to sing to the Lord. We found Lady M is entertained into relaxation by Lady L playing the piano, or as it was today, her Bampa and I holding her and with Lady L, the three of us singing to her with the top choice for a smile Que Sera Sera. Tranced, relaxed... we forged on with Jesus Loves Me, and several other children's hymns. She will talk early and probably be our singer.
Blessings, Laurie
Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it. Hebrews 13:2
