Randomness

Our little Miss Piggy weighed in at a whopping 8 pounds 12 ounces this morning. She has grown 3 and a half inches as well. Her doctor was quite impressed. (so was I!)

Something I've been meaning to share for about 19 days or so...

Overheard:
A: Daddy, I love when you pray. In cars, in vans, in trucks, on motorcycles, in houses. Everywhere! It makes me happy. And I LOVE JESUS!!!

We are starting a 4 Praise Club. The 4 is for Michael, N, A & me. We will add E when she is old enough. Each night we will share with each other one thing we want to thank God for.

Tonight's praises were family, friends, a new Webkinz (when A turns 5), and Miss Cari. A actually had several things she is thankful for, but I can't remember all of them.

We will be buying a piece of poster board that we will hang on the wall to write our praises on. I have been impressed that at this point I need to be teaching my children thankfulness. We may not have the latest and greatest toys or the coolest fashions, but we have more than enough. And we need to be thankful for what we do have. The poster will be a visible reminder of how we have been richly blessed. I will be posting our praises on occasion so if you want to join us with our Praise Club, please feel free to chime in.
