My Boy is 5

Oliver had a birthday last week. How it's possible that he's already 5, I'm not sure. I only know that time flies quicker each day. All he asked for was an umbrella. Isn't that funny? He made it easy on us:) He has been a joy from day one. He started as a content and smiley baby, and at 5 he's a kind-hearted, loving kid. I'm excited to see what's in store for him. We pray that he will know and love the Lord with each passing year.

On a lighter note, yep, we're those parents who bring our kids to the ranch to ride the ponies in crocs and a muscle T. Got a slight reprimand from the owner, but he let us ride anyway.

This Old House

My sweet old house, our time is drawing nigh...
how I've loved sharing life with you
these past nine years.

Lots of memories.

Three kids, a dog, and a whole lot of repairs later,
we are parting ways.
Don't worry, your new owners have three kids too,
and they're excited to get to know you.

We'll drive by you often, and wave...
and hope your new owners treat you right.

Nothin' like you, old house. Here's hoping change
is easier for you, than it is for this old girl.

Love,
me
