Selah trots into 4 year old land!
Well, we tried to keep it simple this year and therefore brought two ponies to our house for Selah’s 4th birthday! #palmtoforehead #itried #ilovecelebrating!!!!! Sometime you’ll have to ask me how the story unraveled, but I’ll just say somewhere in the middle of the story Selah became unwavering in her conviction about wanting an animal… Continue reading Selah trots into 4 year old land!
Our little gymnast
Meet Selah at one year old: From what I recall, this might have been the very first time she was on a playground that had something that was “hangable”. I remember that she RAN towards that slide, grabbed onto the top part, and turned into half monkey ;). Actually, she’s always been part monkey. Crawling at 6 months,… Continue reading Our little gymnast

Honestly, I had no tears or sadness surrounding Elliott’s first day…I… Continue reading First Days of School!

Therefore, He has provided a… Continue reading New Mercies Monday: Laughter
Elliott’s Last Day of Pre-K!
Well, due to no fault of the sweet little preschool Elliott’s been attending, we had a bit of a dramatic ending to the school year. Two weeks before the graduation, the director and teachers were forced out of the building. It was sad and hard for everyone, but thankfully we all trusted the Lord to provide…and… Continue reading Elliott’s Last Day of Pre-K!
New Mercies Monday: Another Year
I’ll come clean–I was going to skip blogging this week. Yes, I had a birthday, but, well…I honestly just didn’t have too much to say about it this year. (I know, I know…which is surprising for this normally long-winded girl…) Until there I was at the gym right before the fitness class started, chatting with… Continue reading New Mercies Monday: Another Year
