Happy Birthday Joshua!!! Big #6

Dear Joshua,

   6 years ago today, you made me a mom.  It was an amazing experience.  You were a very good baby and started sleeping through the night at 6 weeks old.  You smiled easily at everyone and brightened any room.  You are sweet and considerate and thoughtful.  You are amazingly athletic.  I love to watch you dance and listen to you beat box.  I love your testimony and the wonderful prayers that you say.  I love how you shadow your daddy.  I love the he's your best friend in the whole world.  I love what a great big brother you are to Aliya. I love that you think she is the best sister in the whole world, she is so lucky!  I love that your favorite chore is your "Help" chore.  I love that you are so observant.  I love how quickly you make friends with everyone and that you're a natural leader.  I love that you love to learn and are so enthralled with nature and science.  I love that you can cook eggs and toast all by yourself and that you look for ways to serve me and the family. I love that you want to be good and do what's right.  I love that you make me little valentines and love notes and draw me pictures.  I love that you call me on the intercom just to tell me you love me.   You are such an amazing son.  I love you so much!  Thank you for blessing my life so much.  Love, Mommy

Wow, Its been a while!!! And A LOT has happened!!

Can I just say that I'm SOOO grateful that I don't have to be a single mom permanantly!!!  I have dearly missed Jason being up in Washington...but as the Lord would have it, its where He wants ALL of us to be so I'm getting the house ready to sell and for us to move.  YIKES  its a LOT of work!  I can't wait for us to be all together again!  -The other day when we told Josh that we were moving and asked how he felt about it, he said "I don't care where we move to, as long as I get to live with you Daddy!"  -TOTAL Daddy's boy.  This has been hard on him.  Just last night he was wishing Daddy were here.  Only 4 1/2 more weeks till we get to see him YEAH!! 

So, I've have so much to catch up on but its not going to be happening any time too soon.  But don't forget about us.  I will have us up and running again when we get to Kennewick.  :D  -And maybe when I'm going crazy with all the moving stress, I'll take a break and post some pics of the kids. :D 

Until then...SO MUCH TO DO, SO LITTLE TIME!!!
