These are my guys.
It's amazing to me that although I see them every day...ALL day long, I find I don't get tired of searching these faces.

I think I'm pretty lucky to be two out of three to Matt;)

Ok, I'm baaaaack. The last year has been a busy, crazy at times, but full of blessings. Gently led, that is hitting the nail on the head. "He tends His flock like a shepherd; he gathers the lambs in His arms and carries them close to His heart; He gently leads those that have young." Isaiah 40:11.
We have not escaped hardship this year, but we have put our trust in the LORD, and His mercy has surrounded us. I'm not even going to try filling in the last several months, but I'll try to share some highlights. Seth , of course, rises to the top of the list this year. Seth has been such a huge blessing to our family. Matt and I have been having a total blast with this little guy. He is growing into quite a little character. He dances. I can't explain it, you will just have to watch the video.




Can you stand it?! If there is any sound that can be interpreted as music he finds the rhythm and moves! He's a really agreeable baby, so long as he gets fed on time;) and he has turned out to be such a Daddy's boy. "Da dadadadada..."



Ben is growing like a weed. Played basketball and baseball this last year, and is a self professed "Lego maniac" and we agree. Ben has so many Lego creations in fact, that he burst out of the "boys room" and has acquired his own room this month. (We subsequently lost our office) Jonah also played baseball, and (both boys) are doing well with piano lessons. Jonah is so patient with Seth and we call him the "Baby Whisperer". From the get go he has been able to capture Seth's attention and has afforded me little breaks throughout the day. Homeschooling is going well. We are all learning together how to navigate through lessons with a baby in the house. Rosetta Stone and Aleks math, both online, have been a new addition to our curriculum this year and it really has worked well for our new "baby" schedule. Above all, what stands out to me as I reflect on the past year is God's provision. His grace that is sufficient to meet our needs; emotionally, spiritually, financially...there is just no end to it. "And from His fullness we have all received, grace upon grace." John 1:16

Merry Christmas
