The decade of...

The year 2000 brought Eric and I a new trend that has continued thru the rest of the decade: kids! Or, to be more specific, BOYS! These past ten years have been full of sleepless nights, messy houses, shoes covered in dog poo, snorting laughter, 2 million loads of laundry, prayers over little souls, prayers over how to feed the bodies that house those souls, wrestling matches, sports both played and watched, "Goodnight Moon" read 101 times, sheets that have been wet, 3.4 billion diapers, little voices learning to hide God's word in their hearts, a few punches and brotherly hits, real golf balls hit towards our neighbor's windows, every animated movie watched and memorized, a couple of pictures here and there, field trips to the pumpkin patch, and cuddlers sneaking into bed with us at night.

It has been a decade of boys. And my heart is grateful.
