Autumn is my favorite season. The air is clean and crisp. All of nature seems bustling with activity in preparation for the long winter ahead. The animals are scurrying while they gather provisions. The trees use their leaves to put on a spectacular display and end with a finale of beautiful colors. And then they settle in for a long needed rest. Nine autumns ago, while my belly grew and grew, I anxiously anticipated the reaping of my own great autumn harvest. It was a cool, blustery day, the day Pun'kin Head arrived. And so he came, 6 days early, and he is still learning to perfect the trait of patience! What a joy and blessing he has been to our lives. We've been smitten with him ever since. He is a sweet, sensitive boy with an inquisitive mind. He definitely keeps us on our toes! I have no idea where he gets the questions he comes up with. He has a sensitive heart toward the Lord and there is nothing that pleases a parent more. I am confident that He has a wonderful plan for this special boy. He tells us he dreams of one day building churches with his friends and he is always eager to share Jesus with everyone he meets. So, a very special Happy Birthday, to my very special boy :)
