Time for another Celebration...

Yes there is another little one joining our family of four - that would make five :-) But I don't have a sweet clue how to change the title of my blog... We are not sure what we're in for but we are comforted knowing we still have more arms than kids so even though we are outnumbered in the parent/child ratio we might still keep it all together. And now for some details... he's a boy - he's healthy - he's waiting. Waiting for the government to do their thing and off we go to get a little break from this snowy winter wonderland. When I'm feeling more inspired I'll sit down and blog some more.

Celebrating my First Born!

My last post was about celebrating our daughter - the beautiful gem that God has allowed us to hold, cherish and prepare for Kingdom work. Sounds super spiritual but in reality the day to day 'stuff' isn't always that glorious. But I am always reminded of what a treasure she is. And then on to my next celebration... our son who came to us before Christmas - a true gift (who was actually born on Thanksgiving Day in the wonderful city of New Orleans). We will always be thankful to that amazing woman that gave birth to him and has allowed us to raise this amazing little (well pretty stinkin' tall) boy! I love my kids with all my heart and I'm so excited for birthday parties which I can really go all out and celebrate who they are in our lives and in the sight of God - Precious!! So as I prepare for a week of partying I do so in hopes that there is a beautiful woman somewhere in the south that is getting wrapped in love, mercy and peace knowing her amazing gift is not only appreciated but loved without measure!!
