Okay so this is one of my favorite photos of the kids. Merideth is patting her Dale on the head.

From the minute I told Dale we were having a baby he told me it was a girl. And it was his baby! Well I think it is HER brother!

They are so special, Stephen and I realize this. It is so hard to be all the things I think they need me to be. I want so badly for them to know Christ through me, I realize that is in many ways wrong. I can model His love. But I am a sinner. So I strive to show them His perfect love. To be patient and kind; to love their Daddy, to have a home open to people but most importantly to honor God with the precious gifts we give back to Him everyday named Dale and Merideth.
