Happy 2nd Birthday, Luke

Photobucket

My sweet Pookers turned 2 a week ago. He is such an awesome kid. I am so thankful for the joy and fun he brings our family. Luke is very physical....he climbs everything, wrestles Caleb and Daddy, and isn't afraid of anything. His fearlessness is nerve wrecking, at times, because he will try anything! But it is also hilarious to see what he will dream up.
Luke keeps up so well with his older siblings, and they adore him immensely. It is precious. He mimics words we say, and his vocabulary is expanding quickly. He probably has 10-15 words, but he will repeat way more than that.

Our third born is a light in our family. He is so sweet...he is such a snuggler and loves everyone. His tenderness is infectious: even people who aren't "kid people" can't help but pick him up when he walks over to them with his arms raised. I secretly think he knows who likes kids the least in a room and will ask them to hold him :).

I cannot wait to see Luke's personality unfold. He loves to play with balls. He can spot a ball from a mile away! He also loves to punch people and things....so maybe he's a future football player?? Hahaha!

Luke is a persistent little guy. He knows exactly what he wants, and he will cry and scream until he gets what he wants (it is usually not behavioral things but rather a specific cup, snack, t-shirt, etc). He likes to push the boundaries, but when I correct him, he usually obeys pretty quickly.

Each of my children contributes something wonderful to our family, and I love who little Lukey is. He is a wonderful, fun, amazing little boy. I am so thankful for his sweetness!

The following are photos from Luke's birthday party!

He actually said, "Mama, cheese", so I had to take this picture, per his request :)

Women Are Powerful

In the past few Family First Friday posts, I have encouraged you to respect your husband, speak to him kindly, and be considerate (among other things). One might mistake these qualities as a woman who is a doormat, without an opinion, who never shares her thoughts. A godly woman is anything but those. God created women to be powerful . Amazingly powerful. Though God designed an order to families, women are not less than or inferior. We are different than men, but we are just as valuable. Unfortunately, many women misuse the power the Lord has given them through manipulation and control. Those are grave errors and will destroy a marriage (and a person). As I refer to power, I am definitely not speaking of those things. The power I speak of is the unique call of God for women to fulfill the destiny He has planned for each of us. This power is honoring of men (and other women) and does not fear losing control. I often tell my kids: "God created you to do something on this e

And Baby Makes 6

Baby Williams #4 is on the way!! We are beyond thrilled. I am due June 22, so I am about 4 and 1/2 weeks along. Each time I have been pregnant, I can almost tell immediately....I get insanely tired and very emotional (some might call it irritable). Because of that, I have never actually surprised Brett with a pregnancy. For a week leading up to taking a test, I say about 431 times a day, "I think I am pregnant"....so by the time I take the test, it is no surprise. I plan for this to be my last pregnancy. The only reason I don't say that without absolute certainty is because anytime I try to make "my" plans, God surprises me....but our plan is to stop with 4. I feel like this will be my last pregnancy, and for the first time ever, I am really excited about that! Because it's my last, I wanted to actually surprise Brett this time. Even though I felt tired and emotional, I did not mention thinking I was pregnant. As soon as I could, I took a test, an
