Happy Second Birthday, Merr Merr!
She’s our first child to have consecutive birthday blog greetings since her birth, and boy, has time flown! I teared up earlier today in the kitchen thinking that two years ago our little girl was born right above us in this very house on such a wonderful, memorable day. [...]
Back Home
Our little guy is resting now in his bed at home. Praise the Lord! We are so thankful!
At one point a few years ago I used to study my site stats like nerd and wonder about where my readers were and all of that, but I just don’t have time right [...]
Sleep
Sleep is a g-r-e-a-t thing! I always feel like a totally new person after I have a newborn who begins “sleeping through the night.” Despite the fact that Shepherd is a near-perfect baby in the middle of the night, I rise this morning feeling rejuvenated because he slept from eleven to five, giving [...]
Welcome Shepherd
We have our early memories of Shepherd’s arrival now in a video slideshow! You can watch by clicking the slideshow image below, which will take you over to YouTube where the movie is located.
Note: the slideshow begins in low / standard quality by default. To see a clearer version click on “view [...]
Shepherd!
O, Praise the Lord with me; let us exalt His name together! Our baby Shepherd is finally here!
Yes, it’s me in person with an update! Emily and her husband think I’m a computer addict for some reason and said they wanted to see the photos of me in the birthing pool with my [...]
Great Answer
I begged and pleaded with God this morning. In my sighs and tears I meditated on the great promises and prayers of the saints in His Word, and I do believe He has answered my prayer with a “yes.”
I sent out a huge email a little while ago to many people I [...]
Happy Birthday to Me
Yes, you read that right, but it’s really not my birthday. It’s my husband’s. But I feel like it’s my birthday because he is my gift. I grow more and more in awe of how gracious God has been to give Eric to me, and despite the fact that we’ve only been [...]
Independence Day Greetings
I tried to capture a few pictures before church Sunday and use my timer to get a few of the kids and me on the porch. I’m not known to be super-patriotic or anything, but I’m hoping I won’t be around the blog this weekend to send out a holiday hello if you know [...]
Happy Anniversary, Love
(Have you heard that Phil Keaggy song?)
Yesterday was our anniversary. We just returned from a wonderful anniversary trip to Asheville, NC while Big Daddy and Grammy kept the kids. We attended a great marriage conference put on by the folks at Ridgecrest and Winning at Home, which we enjoyed so much. [...]
Happy Birthday, Steve-o!
Man, our little man is three! How time flies…
I am keeping a private blog of all of my sweet and sappy mommy thoughts for my kids, so I will refrain from going on and on here. I just want the world to know how much we love this son of ours and how [...]
