Isn't he so handsome in his little suit!!! Ha, such a mini man! :)
Josh's blessing was this last Sunday. Wow, he is now official! It was such a great experience, and as James blessed him, he said "you are here by God's word, and not by man's word." Sooooo true. Our little Josh is such a little miracle... I still think about that all the time, to think they thought he was an ectopic pregnancy...he sure showed those doctors! He is such a sweet little spirit in our home, and we love him soooo much. It was awesome to have all our family and friends there for this special occasion, and such a blast to have everyone over at our house for a BBQ, even though our backyard still needs some serious work (there's always next year, right!?!)
What hot boys!
4 generations!
See where Josh gets some of his good looks, this is him with Great Grandpa Day
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Tribute to my daddy-o
We blessed Josh 2 days before the year mark of when my dad passed away. It was kind of interesting, because that was the last time that both sides of our families were at the Richards Ward with us...I love the tribute my sis put on her blog: phillippsfamily.blogspot.com... here's mine:
We miss you dad, and still think about you tons. I wish Josh could've played with you, because you were so great with the grandkids. I also wish you could've been here to stand in the circle to help bless my baby boy... But actually, I know you were there in spirit. I know you are watching over me and all of us, all of the times that we need you. I still want to call and ask you questions because there are things that I know for sure you would know the answers to, you are such a smart guy. I miss your 'people person' personality, everyone smiled when they met you.
I feel lucky to have had such a great dad. Some things I learned from him:
- you can NEVER judge...cause you NEVER know where someone is coming from
- you decide how to react to situations, you choose how to respond
- you can never learn enough
- you can never read enough books
- how to launch kids in a swimming pool
- how to really clean a toilet
- people can change
- life is good
- hang in there
