My Baby is 4!!!!

Today our sweet EJ is 4! I Really cannot believe I have a four year old. She was so excited this year too. She has been asking about her birthday since Christmas; literally.

EJ you are such joy to us. You are funny, loving, and strong willed all wrapped up into one beautiful Guatemalan Princess. God bless you sweet girl.





And not to be left out...my other baby was 22 months old last Friday. This picture is the first in a long time I was able to capture his incredible smile!

Impact

I am currently reading David Platt's book Radical and it is in fact Radical.

I recently found the link here with David Platt speaking about the Father to the Fatherless, and would love for you to listen away...intesifies things already on my heart and folks I ask you stay with me. As I have said God has big things coming and I am giddy thinking about the possiblities. I have been patient (OK not always!) waiting for plans that God has put on my heart to start to come to light. So in his time I hope I can share some of them with you.

And because I HEART these babes so much enjoy these pics too!

This is Mo's I am too cool for the camera look..still adorable!



My beautiful princess!
