Transition

The last couple weeks have been a time of transition for us. We’ve traveled thousands of miles over land and sea, changed continents, endured three flights with three tired children, ending up in western Florida. We will spend the next month looking to the Lord as we move into another ministry. We’d appreciate your prayers as we look ahead to what’s next.

Birthday Boy

Yes, everyone says this, but it continues to amaze me how much growth takes place the first year of a baby’s life.

Keith loves lots of attention and he really loves playing with his sisters.

He hasn’t been very vocal the last month, but in the last few days he has been trying out some new sounds.

We had a little gathering with a few of our friends to share some cake and the special day with Keith.

He wasn’t too sure of what to do with that cake. He did seem to like it at first, but then not so much.

We love our little Keith, and it has been such a joy to be his mommy.

I love when the girls tell me, “Mommy, Keith is just so cute!” I couldn’t agree more. We love him to pieces.
