Two and a half months in...

What a life! We are in the midst of diapers and spit-up, laundry and mopping, playing and doing homework. People are right... three children make life busy. But good. Just to recap the last month or so, Jeremiah has been increasingly helpful. Heloves to help with Caleb, 'babysitting' he calls it sometimes. Logan is also in love with Caleb, smothering him with kisses, and yes, a few pinches. Caleb has mastered the art of 'cooing' and is attempting to laugh - which makes the rest of us laugh even harder. And of course, brings about more kisses from Logan. Can I say it again? We are richly blessed. I love it - everything except the mess that I can't keep on top of. My mom mentioned a lifetime ago that once three came around, she never was able to get back to a clean house...it's clean now that kids are gone... I hope I don't have the same sentence. But, the mess is, right now, a small price to pay. Speaking of mess, we have a house to clean before Logan's birthday party tonight.
Logan's birthday party?! Can he already be three years old? What a beautiful kid. He was excited that this, the week of his birthday would include a Happy Birthday Hat (like Jeremiah gets at school) and a Happy Birthday Cake. He even brought Happy Birthday Treats to his bible school class (again, like Jeremiah does at school). It was just a joy to revel in his excitement.
