"A house does not have to be perfect to be a home of joy, a child does not have to behave perfectly to love and be loved, and every moment of life does not have to be perfect to be of value. Too often, I realize, we fail to see the glorious reality of the simple joy that abounds in the seemingly mundane routine of day-to-day living. Instead, we tend to idolize the past, idealize the future, and devalue the present.... What better way to show our appreciation to Heavenly Father for what we have than to embrace our lives, albeit 'ordinary' and 'unexciting,' with joy?"

Cooper's Private New Year's Eve Party
In honor of the new year, Cooper threw a little party in his crib during his naptime on New Year's Eve! I have to go in and get him up from his nap as soon as I hear him starting to stir or this is what I find:
We were married on October 19th, 2001. We have an eight year-old daughter, Chloe, a five year-old son, Cooper, and a wild two year-old little girl, Piper. We live in the Seattle area and love our sometimes boring- but always laughter filled- life.
