Abigail and Josiah






Being a parent is so much fun. Lately Abigail has been doing the cutest things. She goes around with her stroller and puts different things in it and says, "Going to Church, and School." She means sunday school. Then one day I caught her holding Josiah's hand through the crib and she was praying with him. That was so cute. One night she didn't want to go to bed and I kept hearing her in her room. Finally I heard her say, "Read Bible." Oh, that just made my heart melt and I couldn't resist, so I went and read her Bible to her. She knew that would work and she could stay up longer. She is very smart. She also will grab one of my little Devotional Books and will sit and look at it. While she is looking at it she says, "Read God." It is amazing the different things that they pick up on and it is encouraging to know that she is learning about God and Jesus. When I was sick last week she came up to me and gave me a hug and said, "It's okay mom," and she gave me a kiss. She still does that once in awile and I love it!!! Kids are such a blessing from the Lord!!!

Josiah is growing so fast!! He is already about 11 pounds and is a little over a month onld. He was 7.5 pounds when he was born, he is getting chunky fast. It is so cute. Last week after we were at camp he got sick. He has RSV, which is very dangerous for little ones. He has had a cough and a stuffy nose. We took him to the doctor and they gave us some medicine for him that he breathes in and it helps him breathe better. Afterwards he coughs a lot because it is helping all the junk come out. Please be praying for him. If he gets worse he might have to go into the hospital. The Lord is in control and I have to remind myself of that. He is all-powerful and nothing is too difficult for Him.

That is so cute about Abigail! I am sorry your little boy has RSV. My premature nephew has that too, he is in the hospital. How scary. We will pray for him!

What a little chunky monkey! How cute to hear about Abigail's little comments too. SOO glad to hear that he's doing such a good job of growing big even though he's sick now. That will give him some extra fuel to get better soon - and we hope he does!! We drove to Breckenridge yesterday and I said to Nathan, "we should just keep driving and see Brian and Tessa!" We miss you guys and would love to see you soon. Thanks for posting a new update!
