Happy Birthday Buddy!!!!!!!!

Well it's Sunday morning and instead of joining together with fellow believers to edify and spur one another one to love and good deeds, Grace and I are chillin' at home with nasty noses...and I'm not sure about her but my head kinda feels like it's trying to implode.

I sat down here in the hopes of sharing some of 'Zekiel's 3rd birthday party, but for unknown reasons my computer isn't reading my memory card.  Sooo....hopefully I'll be back later today with those pictures for you.  In the meantime, enjoy some of my sweet little dude, who today....is THREE.

This little guy joined our family on Jan 2nd, 2008...and just happened to be the first baby of the year in our county!  (he won some fun goodies for that too! :)

With him and his name (Ezekiel) he reminds us of The Strength of God and that He has promised that He "will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean from  all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols  I will cleanse you. 26 And I will give you  a new heart, and  a new spirit I will put within you.  And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27  And I will put my Spirit within you,  and cause you to walk in my statutes and  be careful to obey my rules." (Ez. 36: 26-27)

He has brought with him bugs, and trucks, and dirt and noise and all things boy.  

He has added more joy, more love, more hugs (he's GOOD at hugs, let me tell you what!), more laughter, and more noise (oh, I already said that one?  Well...it should be in there twice anyway! ;)

He is all boy and is quickly learning to protect and care for his sisters.  We are so thankful and blessed that God added him to our family and has allowed us to enjoy and learn and laugh and play and cry with him for three years.  We pray we have many more years with him and that God will save him at an early age and use him mightily for His glory.  

I love you with all my heart 'Zekiel.
