Words can't express how thankful I am for these precious boys and my wonderful husband!

He's finally here!

Trace David Peters made his debut on November 21, 2008 at 10:29am. He weighed 8 pounds 6 ounces and was 20 inches long. It was a quick and relatively easy delivery! We are so blessed to have this precious little boy in our lives. Brayden and Caleb love him already; they enjoy holding him. We are especially thankful this year as we celebrate this new life. Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving!



Caleb loves babies so much! He finally has his own!!


Brayden meeting Trace for the first time!


My sweet baby! It's amazing how you can love them so much from the very beginning.


He's a miracle!

Reading Fair

Brayden had to do a board for the reading fair at school and also for a class grade. We worked on it for several days; he did 98% of the work. He ended up winning 1st place for Kindergarten at his school, which is out of about 80 students! His board went on to the Regional reading fair, where he placed 2nd for Kindergarten out of 5 other schools. I cannot tell you how proud I was! Monday night we went to Hattiesburg to attend the Forrest County school board meeting where he and other winners were awarded with their ribbons and certificates. I think activities like this are so important in shaping a child's view of school. It CAN be fun and rewarding! I pray that this jumpstarts Brayden's excitement about school!
