a family of two

This family of two LOVES saturday morning. No 6am alarm. No job to get to. It's all cozy clothes and coffee. Before we were wed we talked about the traditions we wanted to start. One of them - big saturday morning breakfasts!

So far there has been pb & j pancakes one morning, and french toast, eggs & bacon another.

Great conversations, great coffee, and great food, all shared at our table set for two.

This morning... the smell of apple crisp is drifting from the oven...

We talk about life, traditions, and what we'd like to share with our children someday. What will be their favorite memories, favorite meals at home, favorite traditions?

What do we hope to pass on? A passion for life, a love of food, maybe even the tradition of big saturday morning breakfasts. But MOST of all, we hope to pass on a love and knowledge of Jesus Christ, a desire to know Him and talk with Him. To trust in Him.

And we want them to grow up in a family with parents that love each other. We know this is only possible with Christ...

Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it.
