As we drove home tonight, it was dark and the boys were looking ou their windows for the moon. This was the conversation with Cayden as we got out of the car...
"Mommy, I wish I could jump way up there on that moon."
"Well, Cayden, how would you get down if you jumped way up there on that moon?"
"I would jump down and I bet Jesus would catch me..." He replied with a big grin on his face...made my heart melt!

Happy 3rd Birthday Cole!

It is SO hard to believe that our baby boy has turned three this month! I can remember a time...when Cole was a newborn...and Cayden only 14 months old at the time...it was a very difficult time for us as we adjusted to life with two small babies...but a very precious time as we welcomed a healthy, baby brother into our home. There were many days that we woke up thinking..."it HAS to get easier than this, it just has to!" And you know what...the Lord is faithful...and truly has guided our every path and led us to where we are today. It has gotten easier along the way...and I can honestly say that I wouldn't have had it any other way. I absolutely LOVE our boys being only 14 months apart. They share such a unique bond with each other that I know will only grow stronger as they get older. Cole has always been the mischevious child...keeping us on our toes, and making sure we are paying attention to him at all times. He is such a compassionate little guy, and cares so much about the happiness of others. There have been numerous times that his big brother has to sit in time out...well, Cole just sits in time out also, just to make sure Cayden isn't alone. And as most of you know...he is always up for some wrestling or rough-housing at the snap of a finger. He gives the best snuggliest hugs in the world, and is almost always the first one up in the morning to say, "The suns up mommy, did you sleep good?" :) Happy Birthday Coley...we love you so very much!
