Mid-August we welcomed Felix into the world! Even five and a half months later, Felix is the joy of our home! The kids fight over who gets to hold him and there are always willing hands to hold the baby when needed. Two weeks and two days after Felix was born we started the 2024-2025

Memorization is almost a lost art. I would love to get back to the way they used to memorize back in our grandparent’s day. At our house we try to memorize scriptures, poetry, music, geography… the list goes on. As I look back over life I realize that when a song is used to memorize
I LOVE birthdays! I wanted to write a birthday song encompassing the reason we celebrate birthdays! Every person has a special role and I fully believe each person is truly irreplaceable!
