Intro

We named our blog “Raising Mustard Seeds” after the famous parable in Matthew’s Gospel. We had some mustard seeds of our own laying dormant in our hearts, and finally, the year before our marriage, we began to let those seeds grow. Our journey with Christ hasn’t always been easy, but it has bore more fruit than we could possibly imagine. And through the mustard seeds He planted in our hearts, He opened them to receive little mustard seeds of our own…

While Jesus in this parable is talking about how faith and our relationship with God should grow from something very small to something mighty and powerful, it’s applicable to our children as well. It is our hope that through prayer and proper parenting, our children will grow from small and helpless (tiny mustard seeds) to being mighty in Christ, so that they will be shining lights in the world and people will come to “dwell in the branches” of their faith.

So, this is our little space in the big internet where we will share our most likely crazy experiences as we start our family and we hope those who are close to us will enjoy laughing at us and with us, and maybe even learn something new :)

Guilty Photo Dump


Okay y'all. I will get around to Gianna's 5 month post eventually. Before she's 6 months ;-)

It's really only 75% laziness though, because we are trying to buy a house, got a nasty stomach bug, my car got hit, blah blah blah. Excuses.

Today, Gianna is being super grumpy. I'm thinking she's getting into some serious teething. As a result, she wants 100% attention, so I basically chucked my to-do list out the window and we're having a play (avoid baby tears) day today. 

This post brought to you by 3 minutes of free time and and a solid picture uploader on the iPhone ;-)

Enjoy a glimpse into our afternoon!

Yum. Owl is good.

    It is AMAZING how much she looks like both you and Chris. I love the piano on the bed! Get her started early ;)
