Since I am now on Spring Break from both work and school, I seem to find myself with time to fool around and do things I normally have no time for. Ari showed me how to play around on Imovie, and... I went a little crazy. Anyways, I decided to make a short film about Brody and all the many moments we have had since his miraculous birth. It is amazing for me as his father to see his growth over the past couple of years . He recently began recognizing his ABC's because of a program Ari bought for him. At 2 1/2, he can recognize letters in the alphabet. (WHAT?!) As I have watched him and looked through all the pictures to create this movie, I asked myself, "Is this the same boy who we worried would even make into this world." For me it is such a blessing to see this miracle everyday. After making this video I tear up and personally want to thank my Heavenly Father for the blessing of having him in my life. He is truly a joy in our home. Enjoy watching what we see everyday!

Dear Winter,




Dear Winter,

Thank you for your hours of enjoyment learning to make snowmen and snow angels, kicking snow, throwing snow, and just watching the snow fall. There is something majestic about waking up to a blanket of snow or watching snowflakes float to the ground while sipping cocoa. Something I've missed for the last three years. And while we are excited for Spring and walks to the park, playing outside, blooming flowers, and a little sunshine. We will be looking forward to your return. I love living in a place with four seasons!
