My baby is 1

It really is true that time flies the more children you have. I can honestly say that I tried really hard to savor each time I held him, rocked him, fed him, etc. As the demands of motherhood beckoned me to other things, it was the quiet times I cherished, the alone times, (rare) that I valued most with Tillman. I wanted to do things right this time and right, for me, was to make sure I treasured the moments I take for granted because I get so busy trying not to sink into disorder around my own home...keeping up with the other children's schedules was "tight." Somehow, even though life was kicking me in the bootie, I was able to really enjoy Tillman and savor the wonderful firsts of his precious new life. It seemed that whenever life was getting edgy, he would flash me that "t-man" smile and melt my heart. He has a way of communicating with his eyes that is so captivating, that I would forget about the stress of life for a brief moment. So, I hope you are captivated by this little 1st year slide show as much as I have been, making it.

Wow! Slaton is 8


We had a great day with family and friends to help welcome the newest official member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints! He was beaming his entire baptismal program. Our family was able to participate alot more than normal, because he was the only one getting baptized that day, until they had an additional child at the last minute. This child was on his little league team...what a cool thing!
Tim baptized and confirmed him and Stockton gave the talk on the gift of the Holy Ghost and I was asked to give the talk on Baptism. Our family sang Slaton's favorite primary song this year: "If the Savior stood Beside me"! It was a great day! Thanks to all the family and friends who attended Slaton's special day! we love all of you!
