Boys. I heard once that if you take all the toys guns out of your house, boys will make a gun out of anything, including their hands. Boys and guns must go together. The only rule is you have to shoot animals, not people. Killing is a sin, and we don't EVER pretend to sin! Sometimes the kids say they're shooting dogs and cats, and I have to explain that we don't shoot domesticated animals either, only wild animals!


I waited for so long for my oldest to be interested in toys. This sweet boy loves playing with toys. He has a sweet spirit and he is so tender-hearted. He loves medicine, and doctors and shots. He thanks the doctor for shots, and feigns any illness to get medicine. Maybe the Lord will call him to the medical field.


Diaper cover made out of fleece.


Diaper made out of Daddy's T-shirt. What a sweet baby. He is an EASY baby. Although all of my babies have been easy. Praise God I have never known colic!


This is his favorite place in the house. He'll sit here for hours. I don't feel badly about letting him sit here because I know I get to nurse him soon. That's just one added benefit of breastfeeding. I know that no matter what, every couple of hours I get to devote my entire attention on just that baby.

It's dress like in shape and form, but not quite a dress.

This is actually my second attempted dress. This material was too thin, it's a bed sheet, so I couldn't finish the sleeves or the collar because the material started to tear. Overall, everyday I am getting better and better.

My semester started again yesterday. I go to school full-time online. I have 4 more classes left! After I graduate I will get my masters and teach online classes, God willing. This will provide us with extra income while I stay at home and fulfill my God given roles. I am beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I feel less than excited about school, but it is a necessary evil at this point. I just have to keep my eye on the prize. For me the prize is not a degree, a degree is just a piece of paper that will burn up in the fire with everything else. My prize is being able to serve my family and help my husband finacially from my home. So I'll continue to praise God in this season of my life and wait patiently until it is over.
