Sunday afternoon tragedy struck a dear family at Otter Creek. Nathan Fite (3) ran out behind his dad as he was mowing the lawn. Phil didn't see him and accidentally backed the mower over his legs. Nathan lost a foot and had some severe injuries to his legs. Praise the Lord that he lived! Please be in prayer for them. Nathan is doing better, but especially remember Phil--such a difficult thing as a dad.

We spent yesterday morning at the Zoo--such a fun outing!! Maddie and Ella always love going. They enjoy the monkeys, the swings and the Sponge Bob ice cream stick.

Recording last night went very well. The team was completely in the pocket and it went about as smoothly as any first night of recording on a project has ever gone. This studio is unreal. We recorded our cut on Next Door Savior there too. It's a multi-million dollar complex. Faith Hill was in Studio A next door. It was tempting to want to camp out in the hall and listen.

We recorded Matt Redman's "Blessed Be the Name of the Lord" and "All Who Are Thirsty". I love--LOVE "Blessed". What a great song! It was fun having Nathan back with us in the studio.

I drove Maddie to school this morning--her final day this year. For Mother's Day,they sent Sheryl a picture taken at the beginning of school and one at the end. It made us both cry at how much she has changed. Our girls are so sweet. Every day is important. We aren't guaranteed anything.

Lord, thank You for Your tender mercies, Your gift of love to me through Sheryl, Maddie and Ella, Your gentle shepherding, and this new day. Please protect our girls today and let them hear Your voice over them.
