Daddy's Birthday

Last night we had a small celebration for Josh's birthday and no one knows where or how he learned it, but Grey was singing Happy Birthday!!!! with words! I was astonished at what this little guy could do! He is always picking new things up. Since it was St. Patrick's Day he wore green pants- they are crazy cute- I'll add pics in a little while.

I love to laugh when the room is quiet and I love staying up when I should be sleeping to talk about nothing! I really love walking into Grey's room in the morning- his smile lights my life. This morning I had to turn on the lights to get him up...sleepy head. His little face was scrunched and he said "eyes, eyes". That has to be the sweetest thing I've ever seen. Life is good. My goal is to enjoy every minute of it.

Dare to be different, dare to be called strange. Dare to be different and the cross around your neck should mean you've truly changed.

I believe in the sun Even when it is not shining.
I believe in love Even when feeling it not.
I believe in God Even when God is silent.


This text was found by Allied troops in 1945. It was written on the wall of a basement in Cologne, Germany, presumably by someone hiding from the Gestapo. In its simplicity, it is a profound statement of faith in the midst of adversity. http://www.drbecky.com/

I love the song that says this and while hunting it I found where it originated!!! God constantly proves his faithfulness and relentless love in our lives. He is at work even when we feel so blind. I am burdened to pass that along.

We can really see the progress on the room now! The vinyl siding is finished and we are waiting on the rough in inspection now. Then we can start the pretty stuff like walls and floors. This picture is a few moments before Grey gets knocked over by the wind and gets a big boo-boo.



Grey has formed an attachment with his lion, Tags. Every night after "rock-rock" time with Dad, he heads toward his bed asking for Tags and Blanket (of course with an accentuated /t/).

Grey has finally reached a whopping 21lbs!!! We are thankful and know that God's plan for him and his size is perfect.
