treasure

What can a mother say when she looks up at the sky and sees God's gift before her? She told me tonight, "God is gracious to allow me to experience the joy of being Elliot's mom."
Our little gift is a speck of God's creation. He loves his little speck, Eli. Pipsqueak Payne is from God. He was put together by God, for God and we are in awe of our good Lord.
God is using Elliot to bring us closer to the King of the Universe.

he has no words and at times, we don't either


Elliot Payne is enjoying himself. His parents are too.
He is keeping us busy.
He made a trip to the driving range last weekend. He took a dip in Grandpa's lake two weeks ago. He loves showers, baths and rain. He saw a beautiful full moon last night. He had his first MOPS meeting with his cute mom this morning. He will go on his first bike ride today. His first train ride is coming up. The fall colors and the movement of a steam engine down the tracks should engage all of us.
He gets to sleep in his own room starting this weekend too. He is four months old next tuesday.

He's the best.
