Finally....An Update!!!!!

Hi Family,

We are so sorry about the long delay in some NEW news!! It sure isn't like things have not been happening. I have just truly been very busy! Working like crazy, being the wife of a now stressed out Master's student(yes, Dee is in grad school and doing great!!), and not to mention the most important task, being Korlon's mommy!! Just writing that almost brings tears to my eyes AND he did just head butt me, three times and growled at me! Too funny!:) Okay already, here is the latest....

Korlon Lael

He is now saying about 6 words including, "Oh boy," "Ooh wee," "Mama" (FINALLY), "Bath," and of course "Eat." There is also plenty of jibberish and oh, he is even talking back! It has already started. With finger pointing as a bonus! He will also hold up 1 finger to tell you that he is a one year old. He has now been attending a Montessori school for about 2 1/2 months and that is extremely awesome! On December 18th, he is be in his 1st Christmas program as a reindeer. That should be pretty funny!!! We are still working on potty training and sometimes he goes and sometimes he doesn't. He is at a standstill weighing in today at 20lbs, 32inches, and healthy and strong. We also had our 2nd round of Synagis today and will continue through April. Boy, we sure can't wait until that is over! It is quite pricey!!!

Tenesha and Dee

We are doing well! Hanging in there at best as we can. If anyone is looking for inspirational readings, we currently read a daily devotional entitled Our Love is Here to Stay by Dr. Tony Evans. I am recommeding it because it truly helps us out, TRULY and each day, we promise that that daily devotion was written for us.

Keep us in your prayers and of course we do the same for you! Be Blessed!!:)

Shouldn't walking come before flying?

Korlon is now one of the youngest members of the AA frequent flyers club. This is his very first flight. He and Dad are traveling with me for a job interview, which I landed with flying colors!

Who are these people and who cares?

Here we are, the parents, getting ready for our weekly date night!! Most people pay us no attention nowadays and that is cool but just in case, anyone..., family or friend, wondered what we look like currently, this is us!!

I am a blessed, healthy, and happy 1 year old big boy!!:)

Here are a few photos of Korlon from his 1-year old celebration photoshoot! We still look at him in amazement, sometimes teary eyed (I will admit, Dad will beg to differ), just thinking back to the year prior to now. GOD HAS BROUGHT HIM A MIGHTY LONG WAY! We do realize that everyone has a purpose and we can only anticipate what else God has in store for us, but Dee & I can testify that this precious child has rooted our spiritual faith even deeper (and deeper everyday)! Korlon has already started to serve his purpose! However, in the beginning of his journey, I was guilty of being doubtful and fearful, but now I stand firm and proud, with this living "happy & healthy" testimony of what prayer can do, undoubtly.
