  (Got this great idea from Elizabeth)   I planned and prepared for this party for weeks! Everything from the handmade decorations, the menu, the outfit – all of it was lovingly created for my little boy! I’m quite sure he fully aware of all the little details and especially appreciated the bbq goat cheese… Read More

A Man of Steadfast Joy

March 13, 2012May 3, 2012 Cohen, dedication, Prayer 6 Comments

We had Cohen’s dedication service this past Sunday. It was a beautiful thing to stand before our church family, surrounded by our parents, grandparents and siblings and dedicate the life of our child to the Lord.  We shared about his name and why we chose it. Cohen – Priest. 1 Peter 2:9 “But you are… Read More

It Was the Best of Times

January 2, 2012January 2, 2012 Alex, Cohen, new year, speaking, writing 1 Comment

Looking back on the last year I can’t help but feel overwhelmed with gratitude to God for all His incredible blessings.  2011 held some of the most exciting events of my life thus far, primarily because this guy showed up on the scene… Some other highlights were: – Celebrating 4 years of marriage with my… Read More

Ich Liebe

1. After a brief history lesson from my Uncle Warren and wikipedia, I was shocked to discover my family is not German at all, but rather Dutch.  I don’t quite understand why all my grandparents speak so much German.  They never even lived there!  I feel as though I’ve been living a lie. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Mennonite 2….

Cohen is 5 Months

December 10, 2011December 12, 2011 5 Months, baby, Cohen 7 Comments

Back at the end of November my little man turned 5 months old.  On Christmas Eve he’ll be half a year old.  It’s just too crazy to think about. The main thing going on in Cohen’s life right now is drooling and grumping around because he’s teething.  For him being grumpy is just talking/yelling loudly… Read More

Dressing a Boy

September 27, 2011 baby fashion, boys, clothes, Cohen 8 Comments

I love dressing my boy. It’s my guilty pleasure. That and watching Project Runway.  (“One of you will be in, and one of you will be OUWT!“) But really, who said there aren’t cute boy clothes out there?  Granted they are few and far between, and the girls section is always twice a big as… Read More

Have a told you about Porter? He was born on March 3rd, 2008; the son of my co-worker, a fellow teacher, and friend.  Porter loved to smile and giggle, especially at his big sister.  But Porter’s life was cut short. He passed away on August 28th, 2008 at 5 1/2 months old from an immunodeficiency… Read More

I didn’t really sleep last night…

September 22, 2011September 24, 2011 Cohen, Motherhood, Seasons, sleep 3 Comments

…because this little fella was waking up ALL the time. Don’t you love how he’s all like, “Who me?  I would never do that!”   He’s transitioning out of wanting to be tightly swaddled but we can’t figure out what to do next.  If we leave his arms out he won’t fall asleep.  If we… Read More

Am I Enough?

September 20, 2011September 24, 2011 Cohen, God, Grace, Guilt, Motherhood 12 Comments

I had coffee with a friend and her adorable baby girl today and we talked about what it’s like being a new mom.  She’s a beautiful, talented women and obviously a wonderful mother.  Yet she expressed to me that she sometimes feels guilty – guilty that she’s not always enough for her little one. Sometimes… Read More
