Parisian update...

the Eiffel Tower has made an appearance! The walls are finished, and now the real fun begins! Decorating! I'm about as thrifty as they come...so there is a lot of transforming and/or repainting going on in my basement! So, instead of paying $60 on that vinyl wall sticker of the Eiffel Tower that I saw online... I got a little pot of black paint and did it myself.

I'm almost done!!!

More pics on the way...

nate...

our youngest son born October 20, 2007. Nate was diagnosed with Trisomy 21 just after birth. He is the source of never-ending rivers of joy. I heard someone say on Christian radio recently that people who have special needs children will tell you that the day that child came into their lives, joy came into the home. I couldn't have said it better myself! Was his diagnosis easy? No...and was there great anxiety? Yes...but there is no doubt about it that God was nearer than ever before. In the summer of 2012, Nate was also diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy 3, a rare, genetically inherited neuromuscular condition unrelated to Ds. Jars of Clay have written "The Valley Song" from where the title of this blog comes from. There are no truer words to describe our family journey..."I will sing of Your Mercies that lead me through valleys of sorrow...to rivers of joy."
