Something About Landon

"Even a child is known by his actions, by whether his conduct is pure and right."  Proverbs 20:11
There is something about Landon. He is unlike anyone I have ever known.  He loves others with a love that I know stems from His relationship with the Lord.  My oldest son turns eleven this Friday.  I am thankful for these years spent as his mom.  

Landon was born while we were in Canada.  I remember the ride home from the hospital like it was yesterday.  I sat in the backseat with him and he held my finger.  I remember telling Todd that Landon was the most beautiful baby I had ever seen. 
One morning after the church service at Bow Valley Baptist Church in Cochrane, I picked Landon up from the nursery.  He was still very little.  I walked through the sanctuary and the Lord spoke quietly to my heart.  As I held this small little boy in my arms I knew the Lord was letting me know to whom he belonged.  
Landon likes books, his Playstation,  telling jokes, drawing cartoons, and watching movies. But if you ask him what he loves, he will say his friends, family, and most of all Jesus. "For the Lord is good and His love endures forever; His faithfulness continues through all generations."  Psalm 100:5  I pray that he will love the Lord with all of his heart for all of his days.  Happy Birthday Landon!!!!  We love you, Mom, Dad, Kendall, and Caden
