January 18, 2020:
Jude cried when he woke up this morning and saw that it had in fact snowed. This is not his typical response, however, I had explained to him yesterday that his party might be postponed because of bad weather. We evaluated and decided that we would continue with our plans and let our visitors decide if they could make the trip. Jude helped decorate his own cake & cupcakes and was very please with the superhero toppers that came in the mail yesterday! He stuck the good guys on top and he shoved the bad guys into the side of the cake 😂.
Jude will be the host of the family, he thrives on interactions with others and craves being around others.
The entire day was spent prepping for the party & then enjoying the party & then enjoying friends after the party. When I asked him what his favorite part of the day was, he replied "all of it!"
We want to thank everyone who came and loved on our boy to make him feel the most special!
Here are a few pics and a video of the day!
My original devotion for today was supposed to be Matthew 17:21 "However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting."
Buuuut, I read something additional in my Bible App devotion that goes more along with my word for the year: GRACE
Romans 14:19-21 msg
"So let's agree to use all our energy in getting along with each other. Help others with encouraging
words; don't drag them down by finding fault. You're certainly not going to permit an argument over
what is served or not served at supper to wreck God's work among you, are you? I said it before and
I'll say it again: All food is good, but it can turn bad if you use it badly, if you use it to trip others up
and send them sprawling. When you sit down to a meal, your primary concern should not be to feed
your own face but to share the life of Jesus. So be sensitive and courteous to the others who are
eating. Don't eat or say or do things that might interfere with the free exchange of love."
Be right back, I'm going to go write this on my mirror.
