Something is missing here!




Recently we have had a sudden loss of of teeth by more than one of our children! We thought Isaac was early when he lost his first tooth when he was five and a half. Susannah beat him though, she lost her first tooth just before her fifth birthday!

Zanna Banana





I know I am about two months behind on this one.


Our little girl turned 5 this febuary! I can not believe this either. I guess that is how I will feel with each birthday that comes. :) She had a fun birthday with all the festivities, cake, pinata, craft, and all around fun time with her friends! The pictures are just a few of the moments from the day.


There is so much to say about our Susannah. She does not mind telling her little sisters or older brother what she wants them to do but at the same time she will be the first to go them if they are crying. She loves to learn and everyday asks to do her 'schoolwork'. She loves to play dress up and princesses. She is every bit a Girl! Her favorite color is pink and her favorite clothing is a frilly dress her favorite food is even chocolate(if that doesn't say girl what does). Zanna will be the first to obey when told something and will not typically make the same mistake twice. I know this requires much prayer as we long for her to share her heart with us and God has blessed us with the counselors to show us early on that we need to get her to open up. Thankfully she is honest, she is the only one of our children that will tell us, when asked, how she truly feels, good or bad! What a blessing she is! We love our Zanna girl, she came into this world rather quickly and has continued to grow up to fast for her daddy's liking. Our time with our children is fleeting so we pray that we make the most of every moment and opportunity we get with each one of them!

Quote of the week

This one comes from Rachel! :)

Mommy to Rachel, "Did you hit your brother?"
Rachel, "Yes."
Mommy, "Did you hit him on purpose or was it an accident because you were aiming at something else?"
Rachel, "It was an accident."
Mommy, "What were you aiming at then?"
Rachel, "Isaac's head."

I was laughing so hard I had to send her to away in order to gain my composure before I could talk to her further.
