So, I'm a little behind. What can I say? I had a few moments to jump on the computer today so I thought I'd catch up on my blog. Hope you enjoy:)

"For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago." Ephesians 2:10 We work so hard to create these amazing little children. Everyday we instill good values, confidence, good decision making, good morals, etc. As parents, we work tirelessly to help our children grow up to be happy, successful, high functioning adults. I must admit that this is the most difficult job I have EVER done! However, I feel like I am creating a masterpiece in my children.

We can no longer leave you just laying on the bed or couch. You are chewing on anything and everything that you can get into your mouth.
