the little children...

I'm trying to keep up with blogging but I often don't have much that is worth reading...
I do, however, have a beautiful family (if I do say so) and with the arrival of spring, some new photos and a family update may be in order.
I hope you like it - because it's what you're getting.







This is Roseanna and Connor 4 years ago.
This amazes me.













Connor and Rose (with Katie's Godfather Sean) a few weeks ago.













This is Katie on the day she was born.
Hard to describe what this does to me.













This cuddle turned into a mutual nap - pretty cute.












This is Katie a few weeks ago, toddling around the place. The blue eyes are from her Great-Grandfathers on Dad's side and one on Mom's.







The Crew.









Carseat Katie











Buddies.







So you may ask, "Are your kids your whole life Dan?"
Short answer is no but that is often where the miracles are each day.
Renee and I want them to be happy in this life and with God eternally - that's a tall double order. They are doing the same for me in my life I often learn and grow because of what they need.
So they aren't my whole life, but family life is how we are all working out our salvation at this time, and we love it. I've heard they don't belong to me anyway.
They sure are cute when they're little though...

I totally agree - you do have a beautiful family! And truth is truth ... no need to apologize :-)

I agree with Tracie on this one. Someday I hope to have a beautiful family too, but until then I will just have to settle for a beautiful wife.
