Five

Five was unexpectedly more emotional perhaps it is a big age, and five is no longer a baby. 


The sweetest friend who shares the same birthday dropped these off as a surprise.













My heart overflows in thanksgiving for God’s inscrutable ways. 


And each year, we are provided another opportunity to talk with our children about the Lord’s faithfulness to our family through Elias’ life.


J realized it was Elias’ birthday with tenderness. He asked if Elias was happy, if there were birthday parties in heaven, and we talked through those things. J was content to know Elias was happy because he was in the presence of Jesus.
