He's 6 Now!



My son is 6 years old now. In some ways it seems like a lifetime ago that he was born and in some ways it seems like yesterday. I'm sure most people feel that way about their kiddos. He's an amazing kid with great energy and high spirits. He's sensitive to hurting people. He loves to read and do math and learn and do school with me--hallelujah! It's important to him to be obedient and he struggles with failure. He adores his little sister and loves the role of "big brother". If football is on TV, then he's sitting there with us watching it and yelling at the players. Soccer is his national past time--our little Pele Jr. His baby teeth are coming out faster than the new ones are growing, so he has a slight lisp now. He is very gifted at memorization and that has helped him memorize more Bible scripture than I ever knew at his age. He loves hugs and cuddling and tickle wars. Pancakes are his favorite food in the whole world. And, donuts from his grandpa. He shares his sugar free gum with me and often gives sister the biggest piece of their shared treat. He's an amazing child of God and a future warrior for His Kingdom. Thank you, Lord, for the gift of our son!




This was him telling us all the things he could buy with the $6 he got from his grandparents! So animated!


Our soccer star! Go Colts!
