free {happy 3rd birthday judah!}



if you ask judah how old he is today,
he will hold up 3 fingers, smile and say "free".
i just love that, i love that he says it "free". it melts my heart every time.
we just love this little guy so much and can't believe he's already 3!

he was very much anticipated by the whole family -
elijah couldn't WAIT to be a big brother!

the first time i laid eyes on him i was in love.

he was perfect in every way,

and a beautiful, precious baby.
{don't let this picture fool you though, he was NOT a good sleeper :-)}

in the blink of an eye, he was 1 year old,

and then TWO!

and now, he's "free"!


he has had a fabulous day! he wore his new buzz lightyear shirt, shoes and "birthday boy" button to school today where he had cupcakes with his friends.





and he opened his present from mommy & daddy when he got home.



shortly, we are headed to mcdonald's (his choice) for dinner (if there's not a tornado...literally).

judah, you are such a blessing! we are privileged that God chose us to be your parents. we are humbled at the task of raising you to mirror Jesus and proclaim His good news all over the world. we pray daily for you - for your desires, your friends, your future wife, your choices and your heart to all center around Him because He is what will make your life full of meaning and purpose. we love you sweet angel. thank you for keeping us on our toes, for always making us smile and for being a little light everywhere you go. you make us so proud! happy birthday!
