Make a Joyful Noise unto the Lord....

Mark LOVES to sing. He finds a book that he'll deem his "music" and then he'll belt out his latest tune at the only volume he knows: Super Loud. The lyrics are made up on the spot-- his favorite these days is a combination of the phrase "The Lord God made you" (from the 1st question of the childrens' catechism Q: Who made you? A: God made me.") and Prov 15:1 "A soft answer turns away wrath." Although Mark's version is "A soft answer turns away RAP." :-) ...We love this kid! All I can say is parenting certainly is a privilege!

Why the name "Drinking From Our Saucer"?

The full phrase is "I'm drinking from my saucer because my cup is overflowing." It came from Chris's grandmother who would say it when she would get overwhelmed with her blessings. Through the years the phrase has been shortened to "I'm drinking from my saucer!" We thought it was a perfect fit for a blog that documented God's many blessings to us.
