A Sappy Moment...

I am so honored and thankful to have been blessed with this family. My husband works so hard every day as he pursues his calling of being a doctor. The road to becoming a physician is long and arduous, yet Brian pushes through knowing that this is where he is supposed to be. And I know that this is where he is supposed to be. That makes this journey worth it all. Though our time together each day is short, he makes every moment count. He gives his all to the Lord, to us, to medicine, to his patients, to his friends and family. And yet he wishes he could do more. The love in his heart never ceases to amaze me. I am blessed to be married to this man.

Then there is our precious Elisabeth, or Lizzy the Pooh, as only her daddy calls her. She is vivacious and joyful (she always has a smile on her face and goes after life as fast as she can), smart (for starters, she knows all of the letters of the alphabet, except that she says "w" for "v"), funny (she is currently putting stickers on her nose and in her hair), talkative (although much of it is in her own language), loving (she loves to give out hugs and kisses...she's even pinned a little boy in the nursery against the wall to give him a kiss - twice!...her daddy had to have a talk with her about that!), friendly (she loves to say "hi" to everyone in the grocery store), and marches to beat of her own drum (often with only one sock on). She is a joy and a blessing to all of our family. We are so grateful that we have been allowed to be the ones to help guide her through life. We are even more grateful that the Lord is guiding us on this journey as a family. Where would we be without Him...
