I heard about this site called Swag Bucks from another bog and I am very excited about it. It takes practically no effort and you can earn points that give you gift cards to some pretty great places. For instance, earn 45 swagbucks and you will receive a Five dollar amazon gift card. 50 swagbucks and you get a Five dollar Starbucks gift card. Now who couldn't use free Starbucks? It is simply another form of search engine that racks up your points as you use it. It took me less than a minute to sign up. Give it a try!

This and That

For a little while now Jaclynn has been heard walking around the house, pointer finger constantly extended, repeating "this?" and "that?". Now, for the last few weeks, much to our surprise, she is always asking, "What is this?" and "What is that?". Just a couple of days ago it turned into "I want this." and "I want that." It is a funny progression but totally rings true to the development of our little ones. Now starts the difficult part of the journey of gently yet firmly (is this even possible?) guiding her path towards righteousness.

Just a test.

Pretty picture to view while I make sure things are posting correctly. Just trying to re-do things a bit.

Wise words

"What you do in your house is worth as much as if you did it up in heaven for our Lord God. We should accustom ourselves to think of our position and work as sacred and well-pleasing to God, not on account of the position and work but on the account of the word and faith from which the obedience and the work flow."
-Martin Luther

Such wise words for our present time, spoken so long ago.

Released

I am so thankful to report that Steven is home and resting well. He still feels horrible but at least he is able to get cozy and sleep in his bed. He had a rough time getting comfortable in the hospital. Thanks for the help and prayers that were given up for our family. We deeply appreciate everything!

Admitted

For those of you who may be wondering about the status of Steven or for that matter any of you who may not know, he was made to stay at the hospital yesterday morning after our little emergency room visit. He has been sick and yesterday woke up having trouble breathing. He looked at me with wide eyes and said we need to go now. So I loaded everyone up and our mini circus went strolling into the ER. After the paperwork had been filled out, examination and X-Rays done , losing Jaclynn down a hospital hallway, Grandma Joanne rescuing me in the ER and taking over watch of the kids, Steven was diagnosed with pneumonia and admitted into the hospital. For now he is still there hopefully sleeping and healing quickly. When I went back to sit with him yesterday evening He looked a million times better than he had just two hours before. So, I am hopeful he will be released today. Thank you for all of your prayers and kind words and help! It is so refreshing to see The Body rise up and bless us. Thanks again!

Happy Birthday Jaclynn!

One year ago today the littlest Zuniga was born. What a special gift God gives us by way of screaming, crying, squishy, adorable, soft and super snugly little babies. It amazes me still that we were chosen to love and disciple these little blessings.
Jaclynn slept in a little today so everyone was already up when she decided to start her birthday morning. We all greeted her with a round of "Happy Birthday." A simple celebration of our sweet baby, but one of the many precious little memories for our kids as they grow together.
