The Reader

Landrie has expressed a lot of interest in reading lately, so Lolly found the same readers we used 20+ years ago on Amazon and ordered the first set for her. We're already on book 5, but she really likes to read book 1 to Karsyn since she knows it so well.





I love seeing her learn so much! She's just soaking up everything right now. Karsyn is learning in the process too and likes to pretend that she's reading.

Falling Behind...

I've fallen behind on the blog here. We haven't been extraordinarly busy or anything, but busy enough that several afternoons, I've found Landrie like this:






She doesn't take naps on a regular basis anymore, but every 2 or 3 days, she'll crash in the playroom. Karsyn won't let her sleep long, so it's usually the perfect cat nap to get her through till bed time.

Live your life...

Live your life so your children will know you stood for something wonderful.


A friend had this quote on her wall tonight and I immediately thought of Jimmy York. He and his wife Tricia are close friends of my parents. Jimmy died suddenly last night at 33 years young. Jimmy lived his life in a way that his 2 young sons will know what he stood for. He has left a legacy that we should all strive for. He will be greatly missed by his church, his friends and his family.



Please be in prayer for Tricia, Braxton, Auston and the rest of the York family.



Stop over to Pops' blog for a wonderful tribute to Jimmy's legacy.
