Our journey began October 2005 when we met in our Single's class at Prestonwood Baptist Church. We were engaged in June 2006 and were married on November 17, 2006. JP works for ROMCO as a Product Support Sales Manager and I will begin teaching part-time for the Dallas International School in August 2011. We have one little boy, Merit Cross. God has truly blessed our family.

Learning New Things




It seems as though a light has come on with Merit just in the last two weeks. Things are clicking with him and he is doing something new each day. JP and I are having so much fun watching him soak things up just as if he was a sponge. He is completely addicted to the Cedarmont Kids videos. Have you seen them? They are videos of kids singing old school Christian songs and doing motions with the songs. We've decided that if he is addicted to a video then this is not a bad one to be addicted to. He has two favorite songs. One is, "If You're Happy and You Know It". He knows when this song comes on and immediately starts clapping. He is not very good at stomping his feet yet but this weekend he mastered raising his hands on the, "say AMEN" part. It is hilarious! This evening we were eating dinner and I started singing the song. He raised his hands when I got to the, "say AMEN" part. The first picture is a picture of him holding up his little finger. He does this when the song, "This Little Light of Mine" comes on. I sing it to him when I'm changing his diaper or when he's not happy about something and it completely changes his attitude. He smiles and starts waving his finger. I'll try to get some better pictures in the next few days.
