Matthew's 4th Birthday!!!















Check out this guy! He had a great birthday this year, it went all weekend long! It is so amazing to see him now, four years ago, such there was such scary stuff going on for our son! Now, here we are, four years later, he is thriving, growing up, and my what a kid! He had a party on Saturday and then we went to pick out his gift from us after his Sunday school threw him another party on Sunday! What a blessed kid, I tell ya! He picked out a new toolbench, he thought he needed to upgrade or rather add to his already amazing one he has! He insisted! He is loving life lately, he is going to pre-school, loves Sunday school (he was the model for the class to display the armor of God) and he is having fun with his young brother Daniel. Those two are so fun to watch. Matthew is really into tools, fixing stuff, fireman stuff, and as you will see with the pics, Cooking! He is also into dressing up like different things, firemen, doctor, Spiderman, Superman, Batman, etc... He is so full of life!
I thank you Lord for all of the blessings that you have given Matthew, in his short, precious life. We will always say, With God all things are possible, for our son, Matthew. He has defined that verse, taken it as his! He should have had so many more health issues, like he didn't have enough, but being born at his age, so little with IUGR, all the other things that the doctors said would happen, he is a walking miracle with the amount of long term issues that have not happened. When I start to worry, get anxious about his life, what it will look like, what he will face, how he will live, I have to remember that our Lord cares about him and loves him much more than any of us here on earth, and he will take care of him. :) Bless you all!

Sharrie, Matthew is such a character. Levi has the same spiderman costume. I cant wait to show him your pictures. I have appreciated your listening ear and words of encouragement lately. May God continue to give you grace to enjoy the great times and to trust Him in the tough times. Thank you friend, Sunshine
