IT'S A BOY!

Easton Kelly Shanks, the name of my new little nephew! My big sis, Nicole, is going to be a mommy, and I can't wait for little Easton to come in to the world. He is scheduled to arrive on Jesus's b-day, but Nicole is determined to bring him in sooner or later than that date, and we all know when Nicole wants something, she figures out a way to get it. :)
I don't care when he gets here, I'm just excited to be an Aunt! I'll be throwing Nicole's baby shower this fall, and I welcome ideas for shower games and themes. I already heard a cute idea of serving beverages in little baby bottles! How cute! You can make ANYTHING cute when its little and revolving around an infant. Take diapers for instance. What's with those games where you put different things in diapers and ask your guests smell the buttocks portion and determine what the smell is. Gross!! But still most everything having to do with babies is SO cute!
Congrats Nicole and Stephen! See you for Matt's graduation this weekend! Love you already Easton! Can't wait to meet you!

    So being an aunt is one the BEST things in the world! I am not a mommy yet so this is all I have and if it really is better than being an aunt, I can't even begin to imagine! I love hearing Aunt Lou! Congrats to you and your fam! BTW it was SO great seeing you Sunday! I wish we could bump into each other sometime and have longer than a few minutes. Hope you are having a fabulous week! :)

As March begins, often we hope for a great thaw in our land. Now Georgia certainly doesn't have any icy soil that needs warming, but our yearning for more light and fresh newness to keep us from numbing appears universal. I have written on this blog for ten years now. From singleness to newlywed to mama of four sickly, but now active, growing boys. It's been a place for me to purge, process, and pray through some of life's biggest changes and challenges. It's also helped me keep distant family and friends informed, but I've felt for some time it's come to an appropriate place for pause. I know that I have many more mountains and valleys to travel if the Lord wills it, and many more personal lessons that I'd love to share and reread to my kiddos one day (and if anyone wants to organize and compile this little landscape into a memoir, please be my guest), but I do not ever want to assume a posture of numbness as it relates to our regular routines. I re...
