Heartbeats and toddlin' Caleb
Whew wee- We are so encouraged by God's best in our life right now! Caleb just turned 13 months two days ago- it seems so surreal! What a joy and a funny little man he is! No longer a baby but a little boy, he has so many little friends, so many dear bumpkin buddies- what fun to watch them play together!!!
Alongside all of that, as we live our daily life, in spite of many losses in friends and family right now, there is SO much joy. Caleb loves climbing under his picnic table then jeronimo-ing over the bench to get out from underneath. He'll pile up toy after toy into his little wagon, then proudly march it across the floor. He really does have somewhere to go, you know!
What fun too- he chowed on some strawberries today; he has had a relapse of bronchitis, so momma's filling him with antibiotics and vitamin C, much to his heart's delight (the latter, not the former). He says apple, car, ball, bus, and said "more" the other day. Today, I could've been mistaken, but he said "like" along with an awesome sign language video we watch.
We are enjoying life together with a fellowship called Newsong in Va Beach; it makes me wonder how the VC's church is going in Vegas, how my church in Washington's ladies' retreat is coming along, and how many dear people along the way have impacted our understanding of what life together can be.
We love you all dearly, and just wanted to share- you are a part of our hearts that can never be taken away. No way could we express our appreciation for you- thanks for your love for Caleb---he delights in you all so! can't wait to see you soon...
all our hearts,
sjc
