I do not know why this one picture makes me so happy. Christina took it. I’ve never done months or even year pictures – I tend to choose the favorites sent to me by my kiddos since Christina was 10 & other family who are better at picture taking. [...]
February 3, 2021 Walk and Enjoy Louis likes to do “spur of the moment” fun. We had a lovely Saturday; work, the guys watched a game, we played outside, we had some really good food some of the girls helped Louis with, and we were winding down for the early [...]
June 1, 2020 Growing Little Love Thea is getting independent by giant leaps. I don’t do the whole months thing unless I have to (I love math, but “over one” is just as good as “fourteen point two five months” as far as describing my baby’s age goes) so when [...]

October 3, 2019 Sixteen Sweet Years The one who first called me mother is sixteen years old. Thank you, Jesus. I am so grateful for being blessed with Christina! I can’t imagine life without her. I truly understand that God entrusts us with raising his children. There is such a [...]
