took Izaak on a date today to see his first movie at the theatre. He was wide-eyed with wonder at the large cutouts, lights, and huge screen. we shared popcorn and gummy worms and he took turns sitting on my lap or drew's because the seats "move alot." We saw "Earth" and enjoyed it very much.

This morning was Mr. Bob Grant's funeral. We took the boys and they both did very well sitting in the back. Izaak had lots of questions about what happened to Mr. Grant and where he was. A 3 year olds understanding of death and what comes after is limited. It was hard to for Izaak to understand that Mr. Grant was in a box and in Heaven with Jesus at the same time. I'd like to know what thoughts are rattling around in his head as he tries to sort it out.

37 weeks today. Officially full term. Still wrestling with names. Hopefully she'll name herself once she arrives. She's moving a lot, hiccuping now, and actually some contractions that i'm trying to drink away...just so my hopes don't get up for no good reason. We're excited to meet Lula. Excited and apprehensive to see how this changes life for our young little family. God is so good...we could never have imagined this!
