“Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.” -Ephesians 4:29 Today a Facebook friend of mine shared a blog post from The Orange Rhino…
Dear Sam, please forgive Mommy for writing a really short post for this month! Your second month in the world has been an absolute blur. I seem to remember that with your big brother, about this time Mommy was relaxing, not doing much at all, just enjoying being a new…
“Samuel” means “God has heard”. “John” means “God is generous”. Together, these two names suggest something very important, Sam. I would say that the combination of these two names is no accident or coincidence, although Mommy and Daddy weren’t aware of these meanings when we named you. Daddy wanted to…
Samuel, this is Mommy’s first letter to you, and hopefully the first of many. I was supposed to be writing a letter every month for your big brother Zane and I haven’t done very well… I wrote to him every month for the first year, and then I kind of…

Have thought about this a couple of times lately… our little man has had a LOT of nicknames, not just since he was born, but ever since he was conceived! So I thought I should start a blog post on that topic so that we can remember in a few…
Well Zane, this month’s post is kind of short. Now that you are crawling and moving around so much, Mommy has a lot to do just keeping up with you – everything you pick up goes in your mouth, and I don’t think you ever stay in the same spot…
OK buddy, here is yet another way-late monthly letter from Mommy. You have had a big month this time around, and there was NO time to write your letter on time! Mommy has been catching up with things from Christmas and working steady on photography, building prints and albums for the…
