Look who's on the move!!!

Wow...time flies! Eli is already 3 1/2 months old. He is on the move - - well I guess technically he is only on the move one way - - from back to tummy. He is a life loving, thumb sucking, smiling, rarely crying, laughing cooing little man! In fact as I write this blog, he is laying on the bed loudly and excitedly cooing away to anyone that will listen. I think he actually enjoys listening to himself... What a gift this little guy has been to us. He is so happy...so easy going...and exactly what our family needs right now! In a time of craziness, randomness, and occasional stress - he is our clarity...our own little piece of joy, sent from the Lord! It is true what the Bible says "Children are a blessing from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward." Ps 127:3-4 On the many days that parenting is difficult, or when Justin and I feel completely inadequate to raise our three boys...just getting a quick grin from him helps put it all in perspective.
