Favorite worship song

"King of My Heart" by the incredible husband-and-wife team John Mark McMillan and Sarah McMillan is such a musical masterpiece. What a beautiful, moving song. I get a lump in my throat each and every time because I can FEEL our Lord's presence whenever I'm singing along. Let the King of my heart Be the mountain where I run The fountain I drink from Oh, He is my song Let the King of my heart Be the shadow where I hide The ransom for my life Oh, He is my song 'Cause You are good You are good, oh oh You are good You are good, oh oh You are good You are good, oh oh You are good You are good, oh oh And let the King of my heart Be the wind inside my sails The anchor in the waves Oh oh, He is my song Let the King of my heart Be the fire inside my veins The echo of my days Oh oh, He is my song Let the King of my heart Be the wind inside my sails The anchor in the waves Oh oh, He is my song Let the King of my heart Be the fire inside my veins The echo of my days Oh, He

We've always eaten mostly only Whole Foods cakes because they're so much less sugary (v. important!) and are always made without artificial colors, flavorings, or preservatives. Best of all, their prices are comparable to conventional supermarket bakeries' and definitely much more affordable than bake shops that specialize in fine custom cakes! Here are Collin's birthday cakes over the years: I only have one tip for birthday cakes: Do not assume that everyone will eat cake...never, ever listen to anyone who tells you that for a party of 25 people, you need a cake that can feed up to 30 people. Just FYI... After the full-sheet-size Skylanders cake party above, which by the way was attended by some 60+ kids and adults total, this is what we had to deal with the rest of the week: ...and this actually was AFTER we had given away huge chunks (note: not slices) of it to the party venue s
