About Me

God did it! He helped Andrew finish his Masters of Divinity at Bethlehem College and Seminary! We are now seeking for a full-time ministry position for Andrew, but we are also serving our wonderfully diverse neighborhood while we "wait." :) God is good, and we want to make Him known wherever we are.

What a life!

Well as you can tell, I'm not quite the consistent blogger, though I would like to be! Sheesh! Since I last wrote, my son started walking (at 11 1/2 months), turned 1, now likes to run everywhere and most recently decided he wants to climb on EVERYTHING! He keeps me on my toes, that is for sure! It makes me all the more eager to find out what life is like with more children added to the family!
No, seriously, I really am wanting to have more children! At least 3 more! :) I'm beginning to get that itch for baby number two, so Andrew and I are talking about when would be best to start trying! Probably within the next 4-5 months?! Hmmm! We are thinking we should try to wait just a wee bit longer so that when we have our second child, Andrew will be in his last semester of school (3 semesters left!) and therefore, we will be finished paying for school. Of course we are NOT God, and if I get pregnant this month, He will most certainly provide for our every need! And besides, we're not doing a whole lot in the way of trying to prevent getting pregnant, so who knows?! All I know is that God has truly blessed us by giving us Daniel (a honeymoon souvenir!), and whether or not he gives us more children, we will never cease to give him praise! :)
I can't believe how quickly Daniel is growing and developing. It's amazing how much he catches on to what we say and do now! I mean really, he understands a whole lot, and is beginning to communicate so more and more! The other day I put Daniel's coat on, and walked away for a second before zipping it up. I came back to him and he had grabbed the ends on both sides of the coat and was trying to put them together to zip it up himself! What a smartie pants! :) I won't bore you with every little detail of his growth, though I easily could! But I am just completely blown away every day by how much he is growing and learning. It is an amazing thing how God creates and developes little bodies and minds, from the womb to the grave! What a great and mighty God we serve!
