...none of the above...it was all Mommy's doing (except for the boat). But she sure does like to make him look like he is:)
Engineer, Architect, or Just Plain Genius?
Emmit's first snow experience...almost
Well, we finally got Emmit out in the snow...and he just thought it was the strangest stuff. He shuffled his feet (he shuffles when he's excited:)& played with a snowball that Mitch made for him. This pic was taken from our dining room window (hence the blurry look...dirty windows). I couldn't help but let Emmit walk around in the snow a bit after grocery shopping a few weeks ago, but I just hate to not have Mitch around to see these special little events in Em's life.
The New Rave
I hate to have you all view this video sideways but it's just so cute! Grandma Mary & Grandpa Kel thought that Emmit needed a boo-boo present. It is the new rave in the Davidson household. Emmit is about to wear a hole in the floor the way he pushes that little car back & forth & back & forth. I love it!!!
Momma's Little Helper
To my absolute amazement Emmit has actually began putting things away from where he got them. Not when I tell him to, of course. He's not that far in his understanding just yet...at least that's what it seams:) But I've noticed that instead of leaving an absolute mess in the kitchen every afternoon with all the Tupperware, pot & pans, lids, & other misc. cooking items, they are all put back where they belong...with an occasional stuffed animal or two. Mr. Rhino is usually the lucky one to be found in the kitchen cabinet, bathtub, behind the couch, etc, etc. Everywhere Emmit goes, Mr. Rhino goes. Anyhow, in the video Emmit discovered the ziplock bags I had stashed with the Tupperware. But, like the good & helpful kid he is (wonder who he got that from?) he takes all the bags out & tried to put them all back where he found them.
He's also discovered that toilet paper tastes pretty good, that the toilet lid opens & it's really, really fun to throw mommy's things in it, that certain shapes fit in certain holes (& if they don't he'll find a way to make them!)...the kid is growing leaps & bounds!!! He's even trying to say words!
Emmit's Reaching New Heights!
It's amazing to watch Emmit grow...in inches, that is. I can tell how much he's grown by what he is able to reach, look over, or out of. He often looks out of our dining room window during the day with the hopes that Daddy might be in the driveway. Mickey usually gets in with the action too!
In the Midst of the Storm
Over the past year or so I have heard about many difficult trials that my friends & family, & their friends & families, have gone through or are currently experiencing. My heart it heavy for all of you. May I say that there is great hope and comfort in the Lord Jesus Christ!
My Anchor Holds
Though the angry surges roll on my tempest driven soul,
I am peaceful, for I know, wildly though the winds may blow
I've an anchor safe and sure, that can evermore endure.
Mighty tides about me sweep, perils lurk within the deep,
Angry clouds over shade the sky, and tempest rises high,
Still I stand the tempest's shock, for my anchor grips the Rock
I can feel the anchor fast as I meet each sudden blast,
and the cable, though unseen, bears the heavy strain between
through the storm I safely ride, till the turning of the tide.
Troubles almost overwhelm the soul; griefs like billows over me roll
Tempters seek to lure astray, storms obscure the light of day,
but in Christ I can behold, I've an anchor that shall hold
...it is impossible for God to lie, we who have taken refuge would have strong encouragement to take hold of the hope set before us. This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil, where Jesus has entered as a forerunner before us... Hebrews 6:18-20
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction so that we will be able to comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For just as the sufferings of Christ are ours in abundance, so also our comfort is abundant through Christ... 2 Corinthians 1:3-5
