Studious

Jacob, at times, can display a tremendous amount of focus and discipline on certain tasks.  The rest of the time.....he is all two year old boy.

Sliver

This titanic struggle took place over a little sliver in Noah's hand. It wasn't quiet and it wasn't solved in short order. For the record, the sliver is out of his hand.

Thank You From Noah

This one came out of left field.  Noah's class does some work writing in their journals every morning but we don't see them very often. After a trip to the grocery store last week one day when he was sick, Noah sat down on his own, without any prodding and created and presented this.  They are learning phonics and it shows.  Really great work for a four year old!  If you look closely, this is what he was trying to say:

"Thank you Dad for getting me a donut"

All four family members, with donuts in-hand and arms raised on absolute sugar-infused glee. Complete with a picture of the shopping cart that he is almost getting to big for at this point.

God's Promises

The call went out a couple weeks ago to CDC families to detail one of God's promises as it relates to their family. Since the bible details all of God's promises to us, we just had to pick a favorite.  Our photo of the CDC billboard could have used some improvement however (Noah really is there somewhere).
