Chocolate covered banana milkshakes for snack...

And her "cake"?

The Princess insisted on her apron for dinner, lol...

Her special gift from mama & daddy, a look-alike doll!

"Hey, that looks just like me!"

Joshua stuffed things into the box to make himself a "present", lol.

Our two blond-haired, blue-eyed cuties...

And she's OFF, tiara on head and baby-doll under arm...

More birthday celebrating to come! We love you, Tootser!

Why is your family's life a "journey of joy"?

“…Happiness and joy are not really the same, though they are clearly linked. In many ways, happiness is the world’s cheap imitation of joy...Happiness is temporal and physical; joy is eternal. Happiness is primarily a feeling; joy is primarily a choice. Happiness is easy, since it requires the absence of pain; joy is often quite difficult, coming in spite of pain. Happiness is self-centered; joy is others-centered and God-centered. Happiness is surface level; joy is soul level. Joy is knowing God through Jesus Christ, and this is the only joy worth living for.” -T. M.

Friends, we're all on a journey! Where are you journeying to; and what is your journey all about?
