my love

just real quick. i know that this is an old picture because look at how small garrett is, but my wife asked me the other day why i never had her on this blog. i told her because i don't have any pictures of her, but she was just wondering why i didn't even write about her. i obviously love my wife, but i think that the kids get in the way of that love sometimes. i know that this isn't right, but i think all of us as parents do this, and even those of us that are christians do it. we forget the one person that has been there with us all along, God. let's try not to do that anymore, instead lets dwell on the good that He has done for us. by the way honey, i love you alot!!!! thanks for giving me such great kids and beautiful kids (luckily they take after you!).

nasal excavators

hey, just wanted you to know that like father like son. this is my little man and i believe that i am going to start a new blog just about my boy. the other morning i was laying in bed with garrett walking around our room and he got into some jounals that my wife has. one of them was one we got when we got married that we were supposed to journal in that takes us through our marriage, the other was one that we got when olivia, our oldest, was born. we were supposed to write to her and tell her about herself. as i watched him looking at these i thought about the fact that he has nothing like that at all. i got a little sad thinking that and so i have decided to set up a blog just about this little tike. i'm trying to out-do olivia for one thing. she always gets the best stuff, so i thought that i would give garrett something a little more special (not to mention i hate writing stuff with a pen and paper). i'll let you know more later. God bless you, and God bless my little man!

joy of being a father

i have to say that God has been very good to me. He has given me the best kids in the world. the past couple of days have not been the easiest and my head has been very low at times and i have been pretty depressed, but when i come home and i hear that precious word, "DADDY" or "DADEM" as my son calls me, i let all of those cares go to the side. they brighten my day more than anything else. now the only problem is that i have to raise them the way He wants them raised. Lord help me!!!!

our kidz

some of you were probably wondering what our kids looked like. i came across a web site of sam bills and i saw his pretty little girl and i thought that i would share with you what our kids look like. they are my pride and joy and they brighten my day when i get home (even on the best of days). they make my life so much better. i think that i'll keep them. we are also expecting our third, which will be a little girl. we are so excited about the third. i can't get over the wonderful children God has given us, especially considering who their father is. well i am expecting some teens anytime now, so have a wonderful day and keep those heads up. God Bless.
