John & Sasha: December 2008

Life is such a precious miracle. We can all look at our children and watch them grow form this little pea pod that is hatched in our womb and grew into a precious baby crawling across the floor. Who are we? Why are we here? What is our purpose? Well I can tell you that life is no easy ride. I am sure we can all relate to that. We are a creation of God that was placed in this wonderful world that God made for us all. It does not matte if you are big, small, Red, Brown, Short or tall. It’s here for us all, to take care of and make use of His creation.
We take things for granted and tend to lose our Christian values due to the ugliness of what society wants us to become.
So why are we here if the world defines us into who we are and what we should become?
“Our past holds the key to our future” We should not run away from our roots and what we stand for or what we believe in. God expects more from us and we ought to obey ALL his commandments and words. We need to sometimes "look into ourselves and see who we really are in order to understand our present and future". Easier said than done, but it’s not impossible. So why are we here? Well, we are here to help create life and enjoy life to its fullest.
Family is the only important treasure, one that can never be bought, only given. We are absolutely nothing without family. It’s such a joy to be in a place where you know you are loved regardless of who you are and what you stand for. The love of a family is truly the work of our Lord. It is said that a family who prays together, Stays together. It is such a blessing to sit across a table and feel the love of the Paxton family. You know we can search all eternity for “prince charming” or “Cinderella”, but if we all knew the truth about those too phony people, you’d be in shock. I’m truly blessed to say I found my husband. We may not be in sync 100% of the time, but I know we soon will within due time. All I know is that we love each other and our purpose is to Love God and cherish the simply joys of life and of course to make life.
Can I say how blessed we really are to have two healthy and beautiful children. We would be even more blessed with another addition to our family in the near future. I’d like to consider our family to be a strong one. John and I are very committed in staying strong and staying in love, no matter how rough times can get. We have been through tough times, but those tough times are like cheese compared to the hardships and burdens that the rest of the world faces. We should not be complaining about anything. If we do, we are condemning what God has given us. I praise His name for giving us this life and a good life at that. Remember that life is precious. Let’s learn how to cherish what we have and to love others and to forgive.
