Hello friends and family! Eric and I welcomed our little girl, Grafton, into the world on January 9, 2009 and our baby boy, James, on December 2, 2010! We have just been blessed with our precious baby girl, Price, who was born August 28, 2012. We feel incredibly blessed and humbled, and we thank our gracious Lord above for all of our amazing family and friends. We hope this blog can give you a glimpse into our lives and a taste of how precious our children are. God is so so good, and we praise His Holy name.

James and Price start preschool

Sweet little James and Price started Preschool at First Baptist Church at the beginning of September. We have been at this precious school for FIVE years now and just love it. I can't explain how comforting it is to drop my children off at a school where the teachers genuinely love them, know them, laugh with them, and teach them the word of God. It has been and continues to be such a blessing in our life.

I was anxious to see how Price would like school...since this is her first year to go. Well, I'm not sure what I was wondering about...she absolutely loves it and is the life of the class! The assistant head of MMO told me on the first day "I went into her class and asked the teachers to show me who has the biggest personality in the room and they all pointed to Price!!" Hahaha- cracked me up but I wasn't surprised at all! She is such a stinker!

Sweet James has loved his teachers- Mrs Brenda and Mrs Glenda- the same teachers that Grafton had when she was in preschool. I honestly cannot say enough amazing things about these women. They are angels that God has put at this school to lead my precious children, and I am so so so thankful. James has also started a basketball program called TOTS at his school- thanks to DeeDee who is treating him! They learn leadership skills, life skills, and basketball skills and he is beyond THRILLED! He LOVES it!

This is my first time with no kids in the house (for a few hours at least) since James was born. It's been almost FOUR years!!!! I felt a little empty at first, a little lost I guess, but now I feel such joy knowing that my children are having a blast and I am getting a little "me" time!! Here are a few pictures from the first day....
Sending all three babies off to school. Oh how I pray for their days, their friends, their teachers...they are my heart!






 Almost to school! James is SOOOOO excited!

 Price's assistant head of the program sent me this picture on the first day of school and said "she is so happy!" Oh how I needed to see this! It was very odd, driving around town with no children in the back of my car, and my heart hurt a little bit....then I got a text with this picture and I smiled. God is good.
