Our baby is now a toddler. Just last week he started to eschew crawling in favor of moving around on his feet. His smile reveals how pleased he is with his new skill. He does a lot of teetering and falling on his bottom, but that barely slows him down.
This week our big boy celebrated his fourth birthday. He’s been trying out new things too, like putting a step stool on top of a chair in order to get when we wants off the top of the fridge. The term “out of reach” is now under revision around here.
Our house guest of several months moved back to his home today. We’re praying he and his wife have found a long-term solution to their marriage problems.

That does sound like a busy week.
It seems like every day brings a new skill or new thing in the life of a toddler — its an amazing blessing to experience.
