This and That...

"Lord all I need today is my daily bread. Because money is just money, It comes and it goes. Things are just things, so breakable. Nothing lasts forever, except our love and our soul." - Sean McConnell

My brother posted that quote a couple of months ago and it stuck with me, so I thought I would share it with you.  Last week I had the opportunity to volunteer at The Stewpot in Dallas.  The Stewpot is a local resource center for homeless and at-risk individuals.  I helped serve lunch to almost 800 individuals.  That is a lot of people in need!  As I mentioned in my last post, one of the best gifts to give is time.  I am really working on this, which is not easy with a new baby!

Need a munchkin update?  Well....a couple of weeks ago we tried rice cereal.  The first night he ate it up and then screamed bloody murder every subsequent time we offered it to him.  I did my research and decided to try oatmeal cereal last night.  According to Brock, it was "yummmmm....ummmmm."  He ate it up and then slept 11 hours straight.  Hip hip hooray!

Jess, I love these updates. Please keep it up. It's great to see how Brock is developing (and it reminds me of how Krista was, she's only 3 but she's so big already...)
