Note from Mom and Dad on Christmas…

Note from Mom and Dad on Christmas…
This is for those of you who have asked what kind of things [we and] KB would like for Christmas:

City Calendar!

Back in Sept/Oct, our city's Facebook page posted, asking everyone to post their best pictures of the city... which they would randomly publish on the website... as well as pick a few to publish in the 2010 Calendar.  With very little expectation, I (along with dozens of other people, and at least a hundred other photos) posted a handful of my favorite pictures, excited to share my view of our beautiful city.

Well, I just opened my email, and look what I found waiting for my in my inbox...

KB's 27  vivacious months of life....

You know your bed-sharing/co-sleeping toddler is being greatly impressed, when she points out a photograph of an empty crib [a totally foreign concept to her] in her picture book, and declares *repeatedly* : "Mama.... baby cry... aww... sad."

Missionaries - living by much grace and faith, as they follow God's call to reach a lost world for Christ!

Obedience

"Mommy, obey.... obey, mommy!" - the words I heard from my two year old, when I didn't do something, the way she thought/told me I should. :-) Hey, at least she's starting to grasp the concept.- haha - Never a dull moment... :-P

Thanksgiving Challenge: Day 6

the beautiful breeze blowing through my open windows, and sweeping throughout my house....

Goldfish

Over the course of the last month or two, KB has acquired four little goldfish! :) "Nemo", "Fishy", & "Shark-bait" and a fourth, yet to be named, happily reside in a large fishbowl, in the middle of our kitchen table - dearly loved & observed by all.

Thanksgiving Challenge: Day 1

Love this idea!! ~ Taken from a friend, of a friend, of a friend.... I couldn't help but partake in the copycatting. Some days the entries may be more involved, while others, just a simple statement. But either way, it will be a small glimpse of the multitude of God's blessings on our family! So here it goes...


Idea: All throughout the month of November - leading up to THANKSgiving -
post one thing a day, depicting something for which I am thankful.
