Big Dan & Little Em

I thought it may be helpful to let some of you know what is new in the lives of our little ones. Daniel is doing well in kindergarten. He has made the "Highest Honors" roll each six weeks this year. He is reading very well. He can read... that amazes me! I am glad I was not directly responsible for teaching him to read. He had to go to the principal's office last week. A little boy in his class has been struggling with reading and had completed a task that had stumped him for a while. Daniel was so excited and encouraged the little boy so much that his teacher sent both of them to the principal's office. Daniel is also doing very well in AWANA. He is learning a lot about the Bible and who God is and is not. He is memorizing scripture and sharing about Jesus with his friends. Daniel is also playing his first organized sport. He is playing basketball. He is doing very well, learning a lot about basketball. He has scored in most of his games and can dribble very well. Pretty good considering about 8 weeks ago he couldn't really dribble at all. Daniel is a great little dude, he makes me laugh. Daniel still says he will be a preacher when he grows up. Please join with us in praying for God to make this become reality.

Emma Sue... I don't know what to say about her. She is one crazy kid. She will not eat anything but pizza and bananas. She is very demanding. She makes really funny faces and has very shifty eyes. She seeks out mischief and knows we know it. She is going to be trouble. She is talking more and more everyday. She can communicate anything she wants to now. She is even saying her name now. She refused to say anything other than "me" up until now. I once told Wendy we couldn't have more children because I would not be able to love them as much as I love Daniel. I was wrong (again). She is so very special. I love her with every ounce of my heart, just as much as I love Dan.
