In commendation of marriage
Today is our 4th anniversary, and though we joyfully confess that our children are gifts from the Lord, yet I must add--my husband is the greatest earthly gift God has ever given me. Marriage-in God's will and way-is wonderful. I love you, Mason! Here's to growing old together!

One more post...
Had to post these pictures of Charlie from a little bit ago. The precious S. family got him a new squishy lizard--I've never seen him so excited about a new toy!
Crazy amazing days
Bethan and Daddy--look at her sweet little face!
Introducing Charlie Vann- 3 parts monkey, 1 part little boy. This kid LOVES bananas!
Little Bets snoozing in her favorite pink blanket. She looks pudgy in this picture, but I'm afraid she's not...still trying to get back up to her birth weight. You can do it, Bets--just watch your brother!
The title for this picture is, "While Shepherds Watch Their Flocks By Night." :) AKA- Charlie wearing Bethan's pink bath towel.
An incomparable God
The paragraph below is the last paragraph from an article I read today entitled, "My Baby Is Better Than Your Baby." I thought this was a wonderful reminder--that our job as parents is not to make sure our children measure up to or surpass other children, but rather to introduce them to an incomparable God. Praise God for truth! It changes everything!
"Old habits die hard, and I may struggle with the urge to compare for the rest of my life. I just need to remember that my job as a parent goes beyond shuttling my daughter through a set of developmental milestones. Parenting success does not come by comparing my child's achievements, but by introducing her to an incomparable God." - Audra Charlebois

Our two little gifts
If you are getting tired of pictures, please click out of this site. :) We continue to rejoice in our precious children and to say with the Psalmist, "Children are a gift from the Lord." Psalm 127:3 Below are a few recent photos...last one courtesy of Liz B. Enjoy!
