6 years


Well, it has been six years since we have become parents...I CAN NOT BELIEVE IT!!!  It seems just like yesterday, we were finding out that we were expecting our first child and then a few weeks later finding out our first child was going to be a boy. 

Josiah, I am so thankful that God blessed us with you.  You are such a caring and compassionate young boy.  You are so willing to help others and serve in any way that you can.  Your daddy has done a great job teaching you how to be a gentleman.  I know you look forward to the day when you get to have a wife and a daddy...and I believe it is because your daddy has done such a good job showing you what it means to be a husband and a daddy.  You have such a creative and inquisitive side...always wanting to know more about how somethings works or how something is made.  Siri is our go to for those questions we just don't know the answer to. Sometimes my brain hurts from all the questions, but I wouldn't change you for anything.  I know that the Lord will use this characteristic to bring Him glory...we actually had a conversation with some people lately saying that you may be a theologian one day!!  You also have become quite the jokester...you like to make people laugh...you like to do silly things.  You are definitely becoming more and more like your daddy...and there is NOTHING wrong with that!!

Thank you for all the joy your bring to our lives.  Know that we love you more than words could ever express.  Happy Birthday, Josiah Potter...our first born.


Here are some pictures from his photo-shoot at Manassas Battlefield in VA:
