Our life is speeding by so quickly! I can hardly believe it. Connor is growing so fast and just looks so big to me! Abby is talking in sentences now all of a sudden and today, we are taking Andrew to Kindergarten screening at Harding Academy! What is happening to my babies!!!!! I have to say that I am trying so hard to enjoy every single minute with my children and I realize now, more than ever before, what a joy and privilege it is to be able to stay home with them. I don't miss a minute of their growing and changing and I will cherish every single memory in my heart forever. I will also say, that for our family, 3 is definitely enough!! Our cup overflows!
George and Andrew are going to Scotland on Saturday. Well, let me re-phrase that, Lord willing, Andrew is going! We haven't received his passport yet. We have to call everyday this week to bug them at the passport place. I just pray that God will send the right person to find it and send it on it's way in time. We have been praying our little hearts out about this for a couple of days now, and I have to admit, that I am kind of thankful for the opportunity to share such a teachable moment with Andrew. I think it's so important to teach our children to pray for any and everything. God knows the desires of our hearts and he listens to his children. I know that if our prayer isn't answered and Andrew has to stay behind this time, that will be a teachable moment too. Sometimes we don't always get exactly what we pray for, but faith in God teaches us to trust in Him even if we don't understand. It will be okay, and we will keep on living, there are worse things that could happen. Any prayers on all your behalf would be appreciated though, it will break my heart to see Andrew's little heart broken. I'll be sure to update on the status of this situation at the end of the week!
We had the kid's pictures taken last week on the front lawn. I think they turned out beautifully! We love y'all, Donna

Oh look at those beautiful babies!! I cannot wait to hold them at Easter...I'm already counting the days. And Andrew looks so grown up...I LOVE his haircut.
love you!
Precious pictures! I am proud of you for being able to post pictures! Who cares if they are in the right direction! We will pray too that Andrew's passport comes...I will use this as a teachable moment for my kids as well in praying for someone else!
Donna, your kiddos are adorable. I thought those were studio pictures! I'm so glad your "guys" had a good time in Scotland. What a special bonding time for Andrew and George.
Great pictures! It was good seeing you guys on Saturday on campus. I'd love to get together soon. Your number is on our fridge!
