Welcome!

Welcome to a piece of our sweet journey of life. This blog is about our family life-- my husband, my type 1 diabetic seventh grader, my spunky fifth grader, my second grader little girl, and myself! Enjoy!

Michael is 12!

Yesterday, we celebrated Michael's birthday! He had the whole evening planned out right down to the time that he'd like to have cake! He chose Bare chicken patties and crinkle fries for dinner (delish!) and a Caramel cake for dessert. He enjoyed all of his gifts and cards and of course, his last gift was found via scavenger hunt (a tradition!) 

This morning, I captured this sweet moment between my August birthday kids. 


My mom took these last night at his party. 





He loved reading through his cards & opening his gifts. He received a few books in a series he's been loving. He got a Kindle which will be super helpful & fun for this super reader! He got a really nice pair of goggles which is awesone for his strides he's made in the pool. My dad gifted him a very sentimental gift which he's excited to learn to use. His scavenger hunt gift was a punching bag on a stand and a set of boxing gloves. He is so excited to be 12! 



Dear Michael, 

We are so excited that you're 12 and loving life as much as you do! You're kind and genuine and can be such a wonderful friend. You're a great big brother and it's a joy to watch you interact with both of your siblings. We're so proud of how hard you've worked in the pool this summer and how far you've come, by sheer determination and effort! You are a great diligent student who has mastered the locker and who is handling the load of honors classes with ease. We are proud of who you are and who you are becoming. Continue to seek Jesus earnestly and always and He will direct your path. 


We love you dearly!

Love, Mom

Until Next Time, 

Much Love, Reba
