God's wild side revealed in the rugged mountains, unrelenting wind, and bitter temperatures. This stirs my heart and inspires my soul. Grateful for a safe journey to and from Anchorage this week.

Fynn's Year and a Half
The little man is actually already 19 and a half months! Wow! He is all about talking and learning new words right now. He often just mimics the last word of every sentence we say; SO cute!
Favorites
Toys: Bears (Baows) Mater (Mae Mae) and anything with wheels (trucks {"tuck"--which I may add also means duck and stuck}, trains{"rains"}, tractors, trike, cars*, airplanes*, strollers etc.)
Foods: eggs*, ham*, fruit (au-puls, grapes*, orange*, ango), carrots, milk, candy ("Dandy", yeah, he got some at Christmas)
Words: More than I can count, but I hear uh-oh, dog, vroom, up, down, out, WOW, and water (blater) often.
Winter activities: the ice slides, play dough, catching snowflakes on his tongue, painting, helping cook, dancing and singing.
What a joyous miracle this child is! He makes every day brighter, sharp as a tack, and so content with his little life, he is my inspiration! I want to be like him when I grow up: full of wonder and excitement. I hope he can be some measure of encouragement to others as he is to me.

Motivation
I've been convicted of something, and then neglected something. First, I have been convicted of my need for appreciation. Not that that's bad, necessarily, but I need to find my confirmation in God, not people. I'd been using this blog as a brag board. And then I just neglected the blog entirely =). I want to change this into a place of encouragement, joy, and helpfulness. I don't know if it will even look too different from the outside, but I'm trying to change my heart motive behind it.
