My First Blog-Yikes!

Well, here we go! I am writing my very first (and hopefully not last) blog post! Paul set this blog up for me when our daughter, Idelette, was born thinking it would be a neat thing for me to keep up. Honestly, I can't think of anything that intimidates me more than blogging, mostly because I pretty much hate to write! Needless to say I never touched it, though Paul has written some really nice ones. Over the last couple of months though, I have been struck by how life really is a vapor. I want to remember the precious moments and memories of my family and loved ones and one day be able to look back on them and pass them on to the kiddos. The other reason I have decided to take up blogging, is that after kiddo #4, I find I am unable to keep up with the baby books so this can function as a baby book for the whole family! I pray that this glimpse into our crazy life will bring my Savior Lord glory, and encourage you in your own life! (If nothing else you will probably feel a whole lot better about your life after reading about our lovely chaos). :)

So, I am going to reintroduce my sweet family since we have grown! Below are my sweet gifts from God: Jonah (6), Jude (4), Idelette (2), and Morrow (8 months). These babies have refined me in more ways than I could begin to fill a blog with! God is so good! Their wonder at life is so refreshing, though it is sometimes hard to keep up with them. Especially, that little blond one on the right. They bring life to my boring adult brain!

 My husband Paul! Without a doubt it was God who brought us together! Thankful for the ups and downs. I couldn't be a helpmate to a better man. On a side note, this post also made me realize we have far to few pictures of just the two of us-two that I could find from the last 9 years, not counting engagement pictures! Here's a picture to remedy that. Now we have three!

Goodnight all, time to wrap up blog #1!
