"For our present troubles are quite small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us an immeasurably great glory that will last forever! So we don't look at the troubles we can see right now; rather, we look forward to what we have not yet seen. For the troubles we see will soon be over, but the joys to come will last forever." 2 Corinthians 4:17-18
Life is not easy. If we aren't going through a rough spot right now, we will be in the future. That is why I love this verse. It has helped me to keep my focus on the Lord and not on this world and its troubles. It is so true. It sure seemed like we waited a long time to become parents but in the Lord's perfect timing and way He brought us joy! Wait on Him, He will never dissapoint you!
Warning: lots of pics ahead:) Josh and Britton blessed my socks off for my bday week and then we had the immeasurable priviledge of babysitting our friends Shyla and Baby D again for the weekend! They are both living with a sweet foster family from our church. We thank the Lord for each time we get to spend with these sweet little ones! Much Love!
1st time officially on the course this year!
Dad, it is a whole lot easier if you just pick up the ball with your hands and put it in the hole!
Notice my "golf cart" in the background:)
Notice Josh's golf cart in the background. Pretty similiar:)
2012 Golf Talk! Britt had an absolute blast today!!
Signing and notorizing the official document for Britton's court date, April 20!
It is nice that Ms. Terri, who works in Josh's office, is a notary:)
We have been duct taping recyled boxes to build...castles together!
Especially proud and impressed he did this one all on his own!
Seriously how I found him talking to Flower (my mom) on skype when I went to get his milk!
What more could a girl want on her bday? Josh knows me!!!
My boys treated me to Frederica Pizza and Pasta House-yum!!
Lemons!!!!
My 1st bday as a mommy...again couldn't ask for anything else!!!
So proud...Britt's 1st try at "little neck clams!" Doesn't show here, but he loved them and kept asking for more. Mommy had to learn to share!
Alittle help blowing out the candle!
Trying to cool down the pizzza:)
So Shyla, I was thinking about a long walk 1st, then lunch on the terrace...
How cute is Baby D?!!!
Britton was just like a big brother to him...so sweet!
Then he wanted to join in on the swinging!
Baby D I will lay with you as you get your diaper changed!
Shyla dear, if you could just ignore the drool marks on my shirt and help me down the stairs...
Got Carolanne (neighbor) to take our pic! Thank you Thoms for baby bjorn carrier...lived in it this weekend!!!
Nighttime stories...ahhhh soo precious!

Getting ready for church Sunday morning...so blessed to have Josh helping out and Praise Baby dvd's!
While feeding Baby D, Stel got alittle jealous and jumped up on her own!
What a group! Sooo blessed!
Exactly how Britt walked up to Daddy for a serious talk on not throwing cars!
Such personality!
Just strolling through the house wearing mom's shoes!
