in love with those babies

I so look forward to the day that I can fully grasp the amount of love God has for me. I also look forward to loving God fully and without any sin in my heart. As cheesey as it may sound…I can only imagine what it will be like. I know that day will surely come…thanks to Grace. But today I’m still here on this earth and in more ways than one, I’m reminded of God’d love. So…let’s focus on just one of the ways God shows His love to me…my girls. As much as I fail my girls…and God knows…I fail. I LOVE my girls. I love the way they run into my room every morning. I love the way they smile and laugh. I love watching them play together. I love Kindell’s sweet little voice when she’s talking to her little sisters. I love the way Corinne still makes my heart melt every time she prays. I love to see Kyah sleep. Even when I’ve been tested and worn to the bone, I LOVE my girls. I can only hope and pray that I leave a legacy that would point my daughters in the way their true Father would have them to go. Thanks be to Him for the gift He’s given me in my girls.

jeremy has the best smile

This is a side of “Germ” that we all haven’t had the opportunity to see before. I know most women think of Jeremy as sweet and sexy. So I’m out to prove all you lonely ladies wrong. Jeremy is NOT sweet or sexy. He has big teeth and he’s not nice at all. I thought lying about Jeremy would somehow help the fact that I just turned 30. Well, I was wrong. As we ALL know “Germ” is as sweet and “nice looking” as they come. Not to mention he’s 41 and makes me look like I’ve been sucking on a can of “fix a flat”. Next time you see him please be sure to mention how much you love his smile…enjoy!!!

First Time For Everything

For the first time in my life, I’m turning thirty. That’s right…the big 3-zero has closed in on my life and from here it’s downhill. So friends, with that being the case I thought I’d go down in FLAMES and start blogging. In some ways I can see this being a present to myself. So I propose to all those closest to my heart to raise a glass and make a toast…to blogging! So…let’s begin. My name is Josh. I have kids. They are nice. I am married to a girl named Natalie. We live in this new place called………….D…al….l….ASS. It’s still a bit hard to say because we’ve only been here a few weeks. I personally prefer not to say Texas because Dallas is NOT Texas. When I think of Texas, I think of those big belt buckles that no one person on this planet should ever wear. It’d be like me cutting off one leg, buying a bird that constantly sits on my shoulder and walking around with a patch over one eye claming to be a pirate…they’re both the exact same thing. Anyway, me and my little crew live in Dallas. The crew consist of my beautiful wife Natalie (3?), Kindell (8), Corinne (5), Bubba (this is Corinne’s stuffed frog who is also 5, he has been thought of by other’s to be Corinne’s significant other), Kyah (1) and myself. We enjoy doing most anything outside as long as it’s not 107 degrees outside…in which case it is right now so we’ve been hanging indoors. Natalie has stayed busy with homeschooling Kindell and Corinne. You can also catch her changing the occasional “g” diaper. I think the “g” stands for green. I’m still trying to keep up to code with Natalie and her good friend Alison. They constantly exchange any information that concerns landfills, diapers, babies, coupons and the effects of plastic that has been tossed into the ocean…”Way to go girls!” Kindell has recently joined the Nintendo DS club. Anytime Kindell has “free time” she chooses to play her DS. When she’s not playing DS, she enjoys playing with her American Girl doll and reading to Corinne. Corinne spends most of her time singing along with anything on the radio and perfecting her dance moves. She can move with the best. If you’ve ever seen the “fly girls” then you’ve seen Corinne…she’s fun! Our youngest addition to the garage is Kyah…she loves to eat, sleep and poop. If she’s not doing one of these three great activities, she’s doing her best to keep up with the older two. Finally there’s me…I do my best to lead, love and direct my family in the way Christ would have me do these things. In closing…I celebrate today with friends who made a trip down to suprise me for my birthday. I look forward to many more “first time experiences” in the days that lay ahead…
In Him,
