For Sale

It's official - our house is on the market! Many thanks to Clint for all of his hard work in getting the house is sale condition, cleaning out the garage, finding a realtor, making trips to the dump, and helping me keep everything picked up.

Wish us luck!

Boy!

Here is his profile. I love that we can see his little fingers and his ear too.

Here are his feet. On the left are both feet side by side, and on the right is his L foot a little more clearly. His estimated weight for today is about 12 oz.

Happy Father's Day!

In no particular order. Pictures from the past...

Stepping Heavenward

I shall now have one mouth the more to fill,

and two feet the more to shoe;

more disturbed nights, more laborious days, and less leisure for visiting, reading, music, and drawing.

Well! this is one side of the story, to be sure, but I look at the other.

Here is a sweet, fragrant mouth to kiss; here are two more feet to make music with their pattering about my nursery.

Here is a soul to train for God, and the body in which it dwells is worthy all it will cost, since it is the abode of a kingly tenant.

I may see less of friends, but I have gained one dearer than them all, to whom, while I minister in Chist’s name, I make a willing sacrifice of what little leisure for my own recreation my other darlings had left me.

Yes, my precious baby, you are welcome to your mother’s heart, welcome to her time, her strength, her health, her tenderest cares, to her life-long prayers!

Oh, how rich I am, how truly, how wondrously blest!
