Happy stuff...

Meet Baby Moser #3 (see below)! He or she is set to arrive at the end of August and we are VERY excited. This little one was a big ol' surprise, but a big blessing, as well! I am 13 weeks along and feeling good (other than being at the point where I've put on a little weight and people aren't sure whether to ask if I'm expecting or just chubby!). Nattie will be 19 months when this baby arrives and I'm not sure what it will be like to have two babies so close in age. I think I'm spoiled now with having Ben be pretty self-sufficient. I could nurse Nattie or rock her to sleep without worrying about him getting into trouble. It will be a whole new ballgame, come August, but we are thrilled to have another! :)

I'm already having moments of feeling sad that she will only be the baby of our family for six more months. I am going to just snuggle and soak her up as much as I can for now!

This picture makes me smile. Same head...same ears. :) Oh..and I like the way her hand is up on his cheek too.

Finally, a bit about my my favorite little man. Last night something pretty special happened at our house. I was tucking Ben into bed and I said a prayer with him, like I always do. When I finished, he said "Mom, I want to say a prayer and ask Jesus to come live in my heart." I was so surprised that he was asking me this already. He isn't even five-years-old yet, and I know he doesn't fully understand all that it means to ask Jesus into your heart, but I certainly couldn't deny him! We talked for awhile about what it means to be a sinner and about Jesus dying on the cross for us and what it would be like to live in Heaven some day, etc. We also talked about trusting in God and relying on Him to meet our needs. He has a pretty good understanding of a lot of the important basics and I was really impressed that he initiated all of this on his own.

This morning, on our way to church, he said, "I want to tell my Sunday school teachers that I asked Jesus into my heart. They will think that is so cool." So, he was even thinking about it this morning...which makes me happy! Obviously, he has a lot of learning and growing to do, but it is pretty neat to know that his heart is already seeking a relationship with Jesus! What a special little guy he is to us!
