Latest happenings

It seems like life is rushing by WAY too fast and I've determined that that's not about to change. Some days I feel like I don't do a very good job of savoring the moment, but I do try. I am also realizing more and more that the laundry, dusting, phone calls, etc. can all wait, but these little people won't. They're growing up right in front of my eyes. So, my goal this summer, when life slows down a little bit (no dance, sports, school, etc.) is to spend more quality time with them. In the mean time, here's a little glimpse into what has been happening at our house lately.

Kate is no longer a little girl - she's a tween, you know? Just ask her! She loves to spend time with friends, write on her blog, play the piano and dance. Thankfully she still enjoys spending time with her little brother and she jumps at the chance to "tend" Eme. I'm trying to make more of a point to tell her this, but sis ... I'm proud of you!


Josh man, or J-Dog as we sometimes refer to him, is as funny and energetic as ever! There is NO question that this kid is 100% boy! He loves sports, school, sports, spending time outside, making noise, riding his bike and did I mention ... SPORTS!

Last week I got to go on a field trip with him and it was fun to see him in action. I use to think he was going to be shy. What was I thinking? This kid is anything BUT shy! He seems to know the name of every student at school and has about 10 girls that are constantly trying to get his attention. Does that make me nervous? YES!



Last, but certainly not least ... Miss Emersyn! She is growing and changing SO much! She has a little girl laugh, can wave bye-bye and loves to clap her hands. She isn't a huge fan of food yet (she's more of a bottle girl), but she has decided that she likes Cherrioes. She's standing up to everything and I know that it's only a matter of time before she's walking. YIKES! Her smile lights up the room and she has every one of us wrapped around her finger!


As for Greg and I ... we're busy with church, work, and life, but we wouldn't change a thing. We waited far too long for this and we're loving every minute of it. Thanks for sharing the journey with me hon! I love you!
