River's Prayer

Tonight after reading bible stories to River in bed, I asked him if he wanted to pray for anyone or thank God for anything. He said "yes. my fishing pole, thank you God for keeping it safe tonight and for not letting anyone come in my room and take it. thank you for helping my friends. for seeing Anna tonight at the pool. for keeping me safe and Daddy safe and give Daddy no traffic tonight. that is it. i am done," he said. Love it! I love the innocence of a four year old's prayer. I know it makes Jesus smile. Thank you God for the opportunity to be a Mom to the sweetest four year old. I am blessed!

Professional Beach Pictures of the Seven!


So, we actually paid for a professional photographer this year to shoot the seven cousins together on the beach. Our primary goal was to get 1 good picture to frame for our parents 40th wedding anniversary. Very fun and a challenge to do in 2 hours with kids ranging from 1 year to 8 years old. Her are a few. Enjoy!
