Hilariously adorable things from the mouth of Owen! By the way, some of these things we are working on! :-)

Daddy: Owen, Daddy is going to stand here so he can make sure you stay in your bed.
Owen: Daddy, no stand right here!
Daddy: Owen, Daddy is going to stand here.
Owen...desperately searching for something to make Daddy go away: Daddy, go see Mommy!!

Owen: Hey Daddy, you get the remote
Daddy: What?
Owen: Daddy you get the remote, I watch a movie!

Owen: Hey Mommy, I get a chocate (chocolate) milk!
Mommy making a statement: You want chocolate milk.
Owen...thinking I was asking him a question: Oh! Ok!

Owen in the car: Look there's the ocean (Lake Hughes)
Mommy: No, it's a lake.
Owen: No, mommy it's not a lake! It's the ocean!
Mommy: No Owen, it's a lake...and the conversation continues!

I am having such a hard time being content in all things! We were looking into renting a home here in Castaic, but the jump from 2 bedrooms to 3 is a doozy! I must remember that God's ways are not mine and that His timing is perfect! No matter how much I want a yard for my boys, a washer and dryer to call my own, and more than one closet, I am and have what the God of the universe has planned for my good and His glory! May I remember this in my times of ungratefulness!

You know that you have kids when you fall asleep on the couch at 9:15!! Last night John and I decided to order takeout from our favorite little mexican restaurant Casa Lupita...it's your basic hole in the wall place that has amazing food! John suggested that we listen to a Q&A from John MacArthur while we ate, and he picked one from the archives dated back to 1977! It was neat listening to something from 32 years ago, and it struck me that JMac has grown in his understanding of the Word, and in his own faith, and in various interpretaions of the scripture since then, the church at the time met in the chapel, and so many other things have changed...like John and I being born...but God's Word is the same! It has remained unchanged! And even though through time we have grown to understand it more, it has always been the same, and it will always be the same! What a comfort it is to me that God is constant!

Welcome to our family blog! I hope that through my life I may be an encouragement and be encouraged in return from all of you! I have a full and crazy life with my amazing husband, and three rambuctious and adorable boys! I love my life as a stay at home mommy and love the Lord my Saviour Jesus Christ. My daily goal is to live for God's glory, and my daily failure is not living up to His perfection. I pray that this is just one way to praise Him through expressing my ups, downs, and everything in between and hopefully encourage in the process! Enjoy!
