This Sunday my husband is going to celebrate his ordination. I am so proud of him, I think back 6 years ago when we started this journey and this day seemed almost impossible. We had just had our third child the week prior to him starting school, and I have to admit that the first semester, ok the first year was really, really hard. There were days and months I was not sure if our marriage was going to make it. God on the other hand had a plan and walked us hand in hand through those 4 years of school. We had some great moments during those 4 years and we also had some very trying ones. It was all worth it. I watch him today and see joy, and contentment. He LOVES being a pastor! He is also very good at it. God knew that he would be, that is why he called him to do it. Funny how God works huh:)
I am excited to celebrate my husband this Sunday and to honor God by praising him for the work he has done in Brett's life and in our family. Our GOD is good!
I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving -kindness. Jeremiah 31:3

My baby turned 1 on January 28th. I can't believe she is already one. She is our last baby, so there is alot things I will never get to do again. Some of the things I will miss about the baby days:
- the wonderful smell of a new baby
- the sweet coos and noises
- the first time they smile at you
- how they hold on to your finger so tightly
- how when they look at you, nothing else matters
- all the wonderful firsts (sitting up, first food, first step, first word,etc.)
Things I will not miss about the baby days:
- waking up every two hours
- being spit up on (sometimes in your mouth)
- bottles, bottles, bottles
- endless screaming that pierces your brain
The things I am looking forward to about her being 1:
- sippy cups:)
- bigger car seat (easier to get her in and out of)
- self feeding
- new words and new discoveries
- more independence (the classic " I do")
- running, playing at the park
- things I am sure I am not even aware of :)
I love every stage of childhood, yes even the teenagers, every stage has good and not so good things, but I get to experience it with them and I cherish every minute.
