Silas Smith is Six!

My love of alliteration has officially been passed to my eldest son. When I became a Smith, I loved the Big S, and he was so excited this week to excel at using it too:
Silas C. Smith the Super Star Student with a Six Stinker Cake!
Here's how I'd describe my boys pros and cons-

Silas- Sassy, Smart and Sensitive
Levi - Simple, Strong and Silly (extra Special too!)
Roman - Sweet, Spicy and Sly
Luca - Sunny, steady, and somewhat spoiled ;)

In keeping the S's going, Silas turned six and decided he wants to be a Spy when he grows up!  The strong willed first born is beyond a gift to our family. He fiercely loves his family and friends, and he'll seek assurance of all things good in this world!
Happy Birthday Si-man!

We have three new members of our family, Orca, Webby and Cake (a Beta fish and two snails respectively)
I found out my hubby never ever had a pet! I think all these boys could have stared at our new friends all night!

Southeastern Train Museum was extra Spring Break fun for all!








A best buddy joined us at Main Event for the bday celebration!

Birthday Boy got the highest score!



Roman is now the toy builder and train track maker!

Loved our birthday balloons

Growing up fast

His new favorite thing is to remain in "umbra" clothes

Requested a banana split this year!

And a school cake that fit the theme of the year!
We love you Silas Smith!

Confessions

I have had so many people thank me for my honesty on this blog lately. I haven't really thought about my level of truthfulness until those remarks of gratitude were given. I think I naturally wear my heart on my sleeve, and thanks to my upbringing, I often hear the term TMI, which just means I'm obviously not scared to express myself. However, I also believe that when you are going through something difficult, it's much easier to be raw and real in front of others, even complete strangers. Often times, it is these "real" moments that bridge the gap between hearts and allow us to live truth. I must confess, this marathon is really all over the place. It's like I hit mile 7, and I can't believe I'm only at mile 7! This past weekend, I felt covered in prayer, peace, and love. Matthew and I enjoyed a much needed date night, our little Levi enjoyed a quiet and restful weekend, and our big boy had a blast at our neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt.  I really ju...

Joy in Pain

There is pain in this world. It comes in different forms. Physical pain, emotional pain, frustrating pain, confused pain, displaced pain, short-lived pain, numbing pain, excruciating pain, sincere pain, unexpected pain. Yet, through it all, there is joy. How? Where? Why is there joy in a world filled with such pain? Is is true joy? Is it fabricated or medicated joy? Is it temporary joy or will it fade with the next whisper of pain? No. I have felt a joy that far outweighs my pain. It's a joy that doesn't make sense mixing with a pain that culminates in reality. It's a joy that couldn't be concocted by even the most elaborate of artists. As I've experienced some of the most intense physical pain during some of the most intense emotional pain, I have noticed and experienced some of the purest forms of joy and peace that cannot be watered down by logic. We lost our second child this week. At just seven weeks old, our precious baby gets to escape a world o...
