Spencer's video

Okay, I tried! I'll try again some other day to try and get a video on here!

If I Had A Million Dollars

Here's Spencer with his latest favorite song ... he never ceases to amaze me!

There's Still Hope

Today I was taking out the withered flowers from the bouquet we brought home from Jana's wake. Bryce came over with his empty milk cup and decided to rearrange all the flowers I was taking out into his cup. "Won't daddy be so surprised that I'm doing this for him!" he says. Later in the day, the two of us were out shoveling and playing in the snow. Bryce decided to play God, and up by the house was heaven, down where I was chipping away at the ice at the bottom of the driveway was earth. "Didn't you have it on your calendar that God was coming today?" he says on one of his trips down to earth. (Now, for those of you who don't know, Spencer is the one who currently wants to be a priest, has been insisting on saying mass everyday, complete with juice in a wine glass and graham crackers broken into the right size pieces. When Spencer wants to say the rosary in the car, Bryce can be found holding onto the cross and swinging the rest of the rosary beads in a circle, as fast as he can get them to go, and as close to Abigail's head as he could come.) When we came inside a little later, don't you know it, all the flowers that Bryce had rearranged into his milk cup had come back to life!

So maybe, just maybe, we may actually have a God-loving florist!

Snow Fun!

Okay okay okay ... I'll post SOMETHING!! Brian & Becky are putting me to shame ... blogging every night ... please!! Actually I've been planning to back track and post a bunch of pictures from the last few months, but I think I'll just get started from here and see if I can get back in the habit of staying updated! Daddy, we miss you! Shoveling with a 20 pound baby on my back just doesn't work ... the driveway is a mess! But the boys had a blast sledding down the walkway and crashing into the snowbank. Scene of the night: I got the boys to bed, but they kept making noises up there so I finally went back up to resettle them. In the midst of figuring out what was going on, Bryce said that Spencer had hit him. I looked at Spencer and said, really dramatically, 'You hit him??!!' Bryce sticks his head out from the bottom bunk with a HUGE grin on his face and nods his head up and down! I had to bite my lip not to laugh at him! Then he adds, "And Spencer wouldn't let me come down and tell you." Little devil!
