Caleb and Sarah are both playing baseball (tee-ball and soft ball actually) for the first time. They are loving it and they’re so fun to watch. In Kirkland, they start out the season with a parade of all the teams. Look who they put on the front page of the Kirkland Reporter?

Found this quote from Amy Bloom and put it on the inside of the card I gave Kari Beth this morning.
“Love at first sight is easy to understand; it's when two people have been looking at each other for a lifetime that it becomes a miracle.”
So true. Cool thing is that Kari and I fell in love right away AND we’re still “looking at each other.” (As you can see from the pic – I’ve got the better view.)
Gotta say it’s a miracle for a lot of reasons. It’s a miracle that in a day and age that doesn’t honor sticking it out – we’re still together. A miracle because after all this time we actually like each other as much as we love each other. A miracle because we still recognize the ways we can get stronger…and are striving to do just that. A miracle because having three wild and crazy kids has made us love and appreciate each other even more.
Hasn’t always been easy. But God has always been present. Always been merciful. Always guided. Always protected. Always kept us “looking” – at Him and at each other.
I love you Kari Beth. Happy 14th Anniversary!
