Yeah. We’re thankful that our electric bill will be lower this month. We’re still trying to recover from our August bill that was so HIGH. That is one of the extra expenses of having a husband working from home. He likes it colder during the day than I used to keep it when he worked outside the home. Oh well. I’ll take the trade offs ANY day of the week!!!

No more physical births here either - at least, if Shawn and I have anything to say about it! I’ll just have to continue to enjoy spoiling “nieces and nephews”, both blood-related and friend-related, too. I’ll see if I can scrounge up a pic of the cake. I think Shawn took one for me, I just need to figure out which camera it’s on…

Well, we’re thankful that you’re thankful that we’re all a part of this big crazy family! Wouldn’t have it any other way!!

Isn’t the manners comments hilarious??? She makes me laugh so much. Especially since I don’t think I was EVER as girly as she is!

Would love to see you more often. I know the kiddos really enjoyed your visit, too! You should totally just move to Houston…

I am tearing up, also. I love being part of my family. Somehow, I feel connected to that
cake that Mommy made for little Baby daughter, Karis. I am thankful for being able to help you.

As for our children, they will always be our babies. But, I know how fast the baby days
go by. It is good to have the memories of the precious days we had with little ones.
And, we do need to enjoy every day with them. For example, your babies will always
remember Mommy and Daddy reading to them as you snuggle with them. That is
priceless!

I love you all!

I love

It made me tear up to hear what your MIL thought to do! How very very sweet.

I am so like you —I laughed when I read the part about you telling Shawn not to even say the “word” that would bring emotions…too cute…you can always have another, adopt one, or just love on your future neices and nephews!!! I will always see Matthew as my baby and I understand a different emotion knowing that unless God did something totally miraculous, he will be our last physical birth!
I want to see a picture of the cake, by the way…is there one?
