Happy Birthday Isaac!!!

4 years old....wasn't so sure we would make it! I heard all the rumors about rough and tough little boys but BOY-you sure have proven them right! After all the bumps, blood, and bruises, I think Daddy and I can surely say you are ALL BOY! Let's see...what do I love best about you???? How about....

1. the way you belt out the words to "My God is Mighty to Save" (even though you make most of them up:))
2. How the first words out of your mouth when you wake up are "Mommy, can you fix my breakfast" and when you wake up from nap "I wanna snack."
3. How you make muscles on the trampoline so you can see them in your shadow.
4. How you get mad at Mommy and Daddy when we 'spank' sister's hand and tell us "We don't spank babies!!"
5. How you love on people when you know they are sad or sick.
6. How you LOVE superheroes and want to be He-Man when you grow up(Just like Daddy, I might add!)
7. The way you tell fishing and hunting stories to whoever will listen (definately a King trait:)!)
8. How you interrupt Mommy and Daddy when we're praying when God puts something on your little heart to pray for.









I can only imagine what the next 4 years will bring! There has not been a day that has gone by that I haven't looked at you while you were sleeping and thanked God that He made you for me. I love you soooo much, my Beanie Boy! Happy Birthday!!!

One of those 'take my breath away' moments....

Last night was one of those late football nights for James and Isaac was missing him especially badly for some reason so I let him stay up a little later than usual. After his movie was over and I was putting him to bed, we were laying in his bed talking about what we were going to do the next day. Out of the blue, our conversation turned into this:

I: Mommy, did you know there's only one God?
M: Yes sir.
I: He's an awesome God.
M: Yes He is.

That was it. I guess it was just something he needed to say. He gave me a kiss and hug and went to sleep. Three...almost four years old....I am amazed at how God is already speaking to Him and through Him. Thanks, Lord.
