I cannot believe that it has been so long since I have written about life. There is so much, that I truly do not even know where to begin. I am amazed how fast things turn around. Our beautiful little baby boy, Jasper, was born on February 11, 2009. He is growing like a weed. He is smiling, holding his head up, has a ton of hair, big eyes, sleeps through the night, and most of all he is just plain handsome. I take no credit for this. I actually told Belleza the other day that I am grateful they are getting most of her looks because I am looking a bit like Santa Clause lately.
The girls are doing well. My oldest had to go through a series of tests on her knee this past month. We were concerned that she had a major issue due to a lump just below her kneecap. It turned out to be nothing, but it certainly taught me a lesson regarding faith, endurance, patience, and overcoming obstacles in life. I would unfortunately let my mind wander to the worst case scenarios, and I wonder how I would have reacted if she had something major wrong with her? Would I still be a positive individual? Would I blame others for what happened? Would I be able to react around my other children the same way if my oldest was gone? Answer: I do not know. That scared me a lot. I hope I will show faith and courage when the time comes.
Another fun thing that happened was Easter and Baby Jasper's blessing at church. Grandma and Grandpa, as well and Grandpa and Great Grandma came into town to take part of that. It was a very interesting time. I think everything went very well. I am so grateful for the opportunities I have had to bless my children. What a tremendous feeling it will bring when it all sets in.
