Moving on...

I've been really slack about this blog lately.  It seems I post so often on Facebook and sometimes I just run out of things to write about here.  It's not that we've had a lack of things going on, just the opposite, but I guess we all just get in a writing rut.   Our biggest news is that we're finally ending our "4 months max" (which turned into 11 months) of living with my parents.  We're extremely grateful that they've put up with us (and our stuff, and our dog!) this long.  I know if it weren't for the fact that they love seeing their favorite grandson all the time, they'd have kicked us out a long time ago!  (Don't even try to deny it Mom, you know it's true! haha!)  It's been a stretching, humbling experience, and though I know we'll all be glad to be back to normal, it really has been a good year and I know we'll all look back and be glad we had this opportunity. 

We're moving just a few blocks from the oceanfront which will make for a fun summer.  Too bad Josiah and I are such fair-skinned whities... we'll just have to invest in lots of sunscreen! :)  God has provided a place for us that we are really grateful for.  It's a tiny little condo, and there will be some challenges with being there, but it's what He has for us in this next season and we're excited.  So we are in the process of doing some major down-sizing and really, I could write a whole post about how freeing that is. Actually... I think I will.

Josiah's 2nd birthday is only about 7 weeks away, and while I have some ideas as far as his party is concerned, I really need to get on the ball and just get it going.  I asked him tonight how old he was, and he held up two fingers and said "2" and even though it was really cute, I couldn't help myself from correcting him and telling him he is ALMOST 2, but not until his birthday.  I'm just not ready to rush away then next two months of having a 1 year old.  He's growing up so fast!
