I found them like this this morning while they were having some brother/sister time before her morning nap.  **Love this and love them.**    Today, I'm thankful that my children are sweet to one another (Jack is especially kind to Ella) and that they are on the road to becoming good friends. Thank you, Lord.   

They were wearing hand-me-downs, and they both looked terribly adorable, and their smiles were squeezing my heart JUST so, and. Oh. My. Goodness.

Psalm 127:3 This one I cling to and hope for as my children grow.   "I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth." 3 John 1:4  I will do my best to continue ...

Can you tell?! Picture taken by the talented Bethany.  Hank's on the left; The Husband is on the right.  And..my mom is eating a strawberry :) He loves dogs, and he has rescued  many  over the years. He's smart and has a great sense of humor.  He's pretty witty! Haha, they are two of a kind! He sings with our worship team at church. He works hard at his job (something to do with computers), and he's also a co-owner of a something-to-do-with-computers business. He recently sponsored two childr...
