2019 - January!! The start of a new year and Brody turned 5!!!

🎉 2019 is starting!! Our theme verse for 2019 is "Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good. His steadfast love endures forever." Psalm 136:1

Jasper attended LTCS and had Ms Morgan Fincannon  as his 3rd grade teacher, and Ms Peacock was Brody's kindergarten teacher. The boys attended LTCS with Sunny and Max Wilkerson, which was so fun! Walker stayed home with me, and Andrew worked at Panasonic! The Lord is abundantly kind to us! Let me tell you a little bit about it...

January! Brody's HAPPIEST 5th birthday 🎉, Andrew hurt his elbow 😢, two business trips, Nana and Papa came to visit, and the happiest little boys this side of the Mississippi!

popcorn party with friends! 

Happiest boy ever! 

we picked up Jasper from LTCS and went to Chuckee Cheese's for Brody's birthday!

letter from Mom 1/30/19

    "Brody, you are such an amazing joy! You bring such joy, passion, and life to our home (and a tiny bit of orneriness 😉 ). You have started preschool at Providence Preschool and you absolutely love it so much! You're in the Monkey Class with Ms. Susan and Ms. Melinda and you've learned so much! You also love your brothers with all your heart, and you've started to love God, too! You do such a great job with your Bible verse (Psalm 34:8, Psalm 63:3, Psalm 119:9, Proverbs 3:5-6, Romans 10:13, Romans 15:13, and John 3:16). Sweet boy, I love you so so so SO very much!!! Love, Momma ❤"
