Dem Bones

Haley fractured her wrist on Friday...she was playing rough trying to keep up with a little boy friend of hers. She goes to the orthopaedist on Tuesday and we're hoping for a removable cast so she can still play in the water this summer! She was a brave little gal in the ER....she asked tons of questions and made my heart skip a few beats when she was asking loud questions about other folks in the ER waiting room! A four year old mind is amazing, they really do question everything!

Since I've learned of Libby Claire and Kate, I am just so grateful for each day of good health. My heart has been so heavy for both of their situations and hope you will pray with me for their complete healing. I love how both of these families are glorifying the Lord in the midst of their trial. I wish they were not going through this pain but I know they will live a much richer life because God will forever change them.

Pullen Park

Pullen Park was founded in 1887 and was the first public park in North Carolina. At the end of the summer, it is closing for renovations so we have had soaked up two great visits this summer. The park has a carousel, a train and kiddie boats along with all the normal playground equipment and a fantastic duck pond. Here are some pics from a trip with our cousins, Jake and Cole.

A day in the life of a 4 year old...

A couple months ago Haley asked me to get off the phone for something very important. When I asked her what it was, she said that she needed me to come to her room because Nemo is getting baptized. There are many times where I have to decide which beckons to attend to, this one was a no-brainer...


Scott took Charlie to Raleigh in May for a few days and I got to spend some good one on one time with Haley. She wanted to create something out of a shoebox that I was throwing away, so we decided to make a castle. This is what we created...
