February 2008, 18th

Wow! It has truly been too long since I have posted. Hopefully now that we have most of our computer and internet complictions taken care of I will be more consistent than i have been.


Joseph just celebrated his THIRD birthday on the 15th. He is becoming quite the little man. Most of the time ALL boy but every once in a while there is a sweetness to him as he cares for his little sister and makes sure she is safe (instead of trying to sit on her!). He is speaking more clearly and has quite the repetoire for vehicle sounds. He loves to "read" books to himself and to Ginny as well as to sing songs that make no sense whatsoever!!!
TOday we enjoyed a visit from my brother who lives in Chicago. It was GREAT to have some really good conversations about life, work, families/kids, and church. Plus it had the added bonus of keeping me sane this morning. My mind is a little preoccupied by the fact that we are expecting baby #4 in October.
I am really excited for another baby, as I love babies, but overwhelmed by all of the changes that means for what we thought was a 3-child summer and year. Praise God for the peace that He has given me about this.
Lord, thank you for the joy of children and the wonder they help us to recover as we see the world through their eyes.
