"I am always going into a far country,

and always returning home as a prodigal,

always saying, Father, forgive me,

and You are always bringing me forth the best robe.

Every morning let me wear it, every evening return in it,

go out to the day's work in it, be married in it,

suffer death in it, stand before the great white throne in it,

enter heaven in it shining as the sun."

Prayer of Confession from the Valley of Vision, "Continual Repentance"

52 Weeks (Part 2)

Forgive this sappy mama, but I will be taking ONE photo each day this week

before the sweet baby turns ONE.

I know I said ONE picture, but how could I not post both of these?

52 Weeks

Forgive this sappy mama, but I will be taking ONE photo each day this week
before the sweet baby turns ONE.

Since writing the "picky eater" post he has dropped 2 bottles and is eating a lot better. I think he is transitioning into milk much easier than the other 2 boys. And he doesn't seem quite as picky! I must have been feeding him too often.

His Turn

Mason has patiently cheered from the sidelines since he was 2.

*Flash Back*

 Owen is #5 in the background

 

It's finally Mason's turn to shine on the field.

And did he ever!

 

#10

Look at that celebratory jump ;)

 

This was not unusual. The other kids haven't a clue.

 

 

It was so fun cheering for you, Mason. Great Job!

7 Days to Go

ONE week from today and Ryan will be ONE!

I wish his face wasn't blurry in this picture, but it's the reality after all. He is always moving!

I love feeding him his last bottle of the day b/c it's the only time when he is sleepy enough to snuggle and hold close. The camera and lights ruined the moment but he was snuggling just moments before. I want to capture it somehow b/c time is going by much too quickly. I have been looking back at the pictures I've taken over the year. Such sweet memories!
