Colin's Dedication

Colin's Dedication

On Mother's Day we had the privilege of dedicating Colin. It was a great opportunity to make a public commitment to raise Colin in the church and in the word.

It was also hilarious to think of the five of us being on stage. There were 5 other families dedicating their children on this day. Two of those families also have 3 small boys. So on the stage there were 11 kids, and one was a girl. Look out, in a few years the Clearwater softball team will be unstoppable.

The boys did great. I wish we had gotten a family picture after church, but the moment has passed so I must let that go. I had all the boys and Jason wear orange and green and I wore pink and orange (cause I'm the girl). Next time!

Colin's life verse comes out of 2 Timothy. Jason was in the midst of studying 2 Timothy when Colin was born. It is simple, but it truly is our desire for our son.

"You then, my child, be strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus," - 2 Timothy 2:1
Oh, that we could all live in the strength of His grace.

Swinging





Baby Colin had his first ride in a real swing. He loved it. He giggled and it was adorable. The park was almost empty, so all the boys were able to swing at the same time. Quite a rare occurrence. He is almost one, and in moments like these I can actually feel the time zooming by us.



Oh how they love this little boy and they love to help!




A very short video, there is always someone to manage.

Great-Grandchildren

Trip to L.A.

My grandparents have always made huge efforts to be involved in their grandchildren's lives. Now they make the same strides to see their great-grandchildren, which now mounts to four great-grandsons. It is amazing to have them in our lives.

It lost some of its magic when the "engineer" had to do a quick charge on the battery before we could ride, but a train ride is always fun.
