Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely-in a pretty and well-preserved body-but rather a skid in a broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, "Wow, what a ride!"-anonymous

scared of the scissors.
It was about time. For his first haircut! I can hardly believe it. Instead of a little baby playing in my family room I now have a little man. He still cries, sucks on his toes, and cant handle the heavy flow of a sippy cup-but dont be fooled. He is a big boy. With big boy haircut.
My husband and I. We enjoy being outdoors- since having Jackson, life has changed for the better. Instead of sleeping under the stars next to the bonfire, we enjoy cuddling with our 1 year old son next to the fireplace. Instead of climbing fourteener mountains, we enjoy walking around the lake with the stroller. And instead of playing fetch with the dog everyday after 12 hours of work, I enjoy staying home with my son and watching him learn new things. We are happy and content with our new normal because life with a child is more than we could have imagined.... We have our ups and downs, but In Christ Alone Our Hope Is Found.
Jackson. 1 year. Loves reading books, climbing on things he's not supposed to, and playing with mom's kitchen gadgets. A perfect day for him is when the neighbor kids are outside and he can watch them play their big kid games. Oh and a 30 minute nap might be included in that perfect day, but not a second longer!
