Kami's a genius





































Here's to you Kami! I love the pictures.

Anniversary

Aaron and I have been married now for six years. Here is a running total of the events over the last six years:

1. We have lived in two cities and five houses.
2. We have had three children.
3. We have worked at seven jobs.
4. We have been through two cats, four cars, and many houseguests.
5. We have loved and been loved by many family members and friends.
6. We have both graduated college together and been classmates three times.
7. We have gone to Acapulco, Colorado, Arizona, Texas, and Kansas on vacation.
8. We have fallen in love many, many times.

I love growing and going with you honey. You've been there for many breakdowns, intercessions, arguments, heartaches, and sweet moments. I've seen our Lord in you, and it is such a pleasure to watch Him guide and lead you as the head of our family. I love following you, and I commit to following you the rest of our lives. Thank you for giving me your name.

Love,
Your wife.

Mother's day

Mother's Day is a difficult day with three little ones. No matter what happens, mommy is still mommy: wiping boogers, changing dirty diapers, kissing boo-boos, tickling tummies, nursing a hungry baby, hugging, kissing, praying, putting ourselves last, etc, etc.

We had a great day with family here. A wonderful lasagna, bread, salad, brownies, and fruit. It was the best potluck we've had in a while. The company was great, too.

Yesterday was also infant dedication at church. Little Haven was dedicated to the Lord. I'll never get over that. What a privelege to be a part of something so beautiful. Haven, don't ever get over it either.

Because of the craziness yesterday, today is my "me" time. Big sisters are at Chichi and Peepaw's. Baby is asleep. So, guess what I'm doing later today? LAUNDRY! CLEANING! ORGANIZING! What did I do all day with one baby? Surprising as it sounds, I love the quiet days like this one. I love getting my house in order, singing a song of gratitude in my heart.
