let everything that has breath...
ethan is now old enough to go to sunday school, and he LOVES it. every week, he comes out with a slew of papers and a grand ole' bible story to share with us... whether it's a big fish that spit jonah out on the sidewalk or david who put one stone in his ceiling to kill goliath (did you catch that one??), he is full of excitement about the history of God's people. he also has a memory verse, which has been the same one for the last several weeks:
psalm 150:6- let everything that has breath, praise the Lord. praise the Lord.
he memorized it quickly, and we've been using it at every applicational angle possible... one evening, he asked what the crickets (or frogs?) were saying as their songs filled our trees... they are chirping praise to the Lord! we are also using this verse to remind him that you cannot praise the Lord and complain/fuss/whine at the same time. (james 3:9-12) ethan was surprised by the new angle on my very frequently used "do everything without complaining or arguing" (phil 2:14)! this is a good reminder for mommy as well. :)
anyway, here's a little video of ethan saying his memory verse, plus some other demographic information. :) i was actually trying to get him to tell some bible stories, but that was a huge flop!! haha! he liked bouncing on caroline's bed too much!
watch till the end to get ethan's predicition on the gender of baby #3 (which we find out on september 10 at 7 am!!)... he has always insisted it is a boy, so i was quite surprised by his answer. he never ceases to make his momma laugh!
have a great week!

Awww! How cute!
Ethan is a wise little boy!! I pray he will have a long life to Praise the Lord!! He is not going to commit himself to brother or sister, will be one or the other and he will love whichever one!! He is a very sweet boy, so is his sister, mommy and daddy. Love, Aunt Norma

I'm blessed every time I read your blog. How precious! You are an inspiring writer but even more importantly, an inspiring mom for anyone who knows you!
Love you, Em
P.S. A big "wow" to Brian for making your first years' blog into a book ... now that's impressive!
that was really cute. he's so much fun! can't wait to hear if the baby is a boy or girl! i can't believe that it's almost time to find out already.
