Precious 'Blooming Promise of God', you are blooming right before our eyes. Your facial expressions, hand motions and intonations bring your stories to life. You are memorizing your first Bible verse (complete with hand motions) 1 Pet. 5:7 "For He cares for you." You (and we) are so PROUD! Some of your favorite things: PINK (we could check out only pink books from the library last week), playing outside, art (always art), and My Little Ponies. My favorite word that you have held onto since you were 2 is 'sicpopsles' for popsicles. Love that...NEVER correct it. Another thing you say A LOT is, "Mommy, willyoutellme a storyfromwhenyou werealittlekid?" (I purposely left out the spaces there, because the way that you say it all blends together as if it were one word...cute.) We love you so much and know that God has something really special in store for you. You are precious, sensitive and very perceptive...you surprise us with how deeply you feel and understand things. We know the Lord will use these things in bringing Himself glory. We love you 4 times.

Sweet Boy, you are growing so quickly. You love anything with wheels; cars (beep beeps), trains (choo choo), and trucks (cucks). Your favorite books to read are "Head to Toe" and "Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?" by Eric Carle. You love your blanket and Pacie. When we are getting ready for your nap or bedtime you will call out to your pacie, "Pass?! Paaaasss?!" One of the most endearing things you do right now is humm to me when you are winding down for bedtime and saying "amen" at the end of our prayers. Also, putting your hands in the air for "crowns for Jesus." You never forget to do that after our prayers at meals. Playing outside is at the top of your list of things to do. You are very particular about the foods that you eat. NO MEAT, EVER! So peanut butter, eggs and yogurt are our friends. You understand everything we say to you and answer with really cute "aahuh-s" and "nowah-s". We are excited about who God has made you to be...it will be fun to figure that out with you. Praying that the "Lord will be your God" as your name says. You are so loved and cherished. I hope you always know that.
