Things are going so much better than they were on my last post. We circled in, round up the wagons so to speak. Prayer is a wonderful thing. So, when I was talking about a battle for our children I meant it. Dale was having a battle going on for him, and JESUS is now Lord of his life. Dale very sweetly and sincerely asked Jesus into his heart Monday night. Please don't think I am saying that b/c Dale did this is just made him act better. But do hear me when I say that the inner conflictions is him are settled. Literally I prayed over that sweet boy, family and friends did as well. So family and friends expect a call from a sweet brown eyed boy telling you about Jesus in his heart! Oh what joy!

love, e

It is funny to me that he still has baby hands. I LOVE that he does. He still sleeps like a bunny too. Dale tells EVERYONE that he is about to be 5 and that he is going to have a BIG party for his birthday. The problem is his birthday is not until November!! Merideth is the next birthday around our house! He is so sweet and cute and thougthful. I love him so. He is getting into the swing of things with Miss Meme having a b-day. He thinks she might want some dragons or snakes. She might; but I think she would rather have babies or dress up clothes!! Anyway just a glimpse into our lives around here!!

So here is our sweet Dale. I LOVE the photo of him just looking at something. I can't even remember what he was pointing at but I just love the way the light is hitting his sweet little boy face, how he is still holding a stuffed animal. He is growing up way to fast. It seems like just yesterday we found out he was on his way. Time goes way to fast! The other photos is of the kids with Poppy, or Poppies as Merideth calls him. Dale really enjoys being with Poppy. They have a lot of fun. But as Poppy likes to tell me he does not let Dale negotiate with him. That is the thing with Dale he is a smooth talker. He can get me to think I agreed to something! Even when I didn't and then I wonder and scatch my head! Dale is learning more about numbers and letters. And he is an expert cutter with scissors and paper. He loves animals and today we are making a scrapbook of snakes for him. His idea that we keep the photos from the newspaper of the rattlesnake roundup! Should be fun! Well I am off to cut and glue!!
