latest pics of our boy on the move!!!

so far...
crawling all over the house
pulling up on EVERYTHING
open and shut drawers
jumped out of his crib
climbed out of high chair
pulling every book off of his book shelf
and so much more!!!

open house

overwhelmed at the gift of my children...
God has wrapped up so much for me to learn of Himself in them... He gives me so much love daily, joy that is steadfast/unbroken/constant, peace from their beautiful hearts, and i trust is producing what will someday be called patience in me, rountine talks of goodness and kindness, to one another, and self control! WOW... parenting is a tool to equip us... and with any tool... if we use it, it will build us and shape us for the ABUNDANT life He wants for us!
Jn 10:10 "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full"
so i give thanks... for an encounter with the Most High... witnessing my children's excitement at all He gave them to do well, to excel, to enjoy school, LIFE... abundantly!!! here are a few pics from our "open house" this morning... we chose to forego the party last night for a trip to dodger stadium!!! all you can eat dodger dogs... can't beat it!!!
