Happy 10th Birthday, Caleb

10. Double digits.
I can hardly believe it.

Caleb is who made me a mom, so I am always so emotional about his birthdays.
Part of me feels like he was born yesterday, but he mostly feels like he's been in my life forever.

I adore this awesome boy. He is so much like his daddy. His first born personality makes me smile. He is so careful and thoughtful. He cares about right and wrong. He is maturing and getting more adventurous, but he always weighs his decisions. I like this about him.

Caleb is into all things boy. He loves throwing the football and shooting hoops. He and I hang out in the driveway a lot playing sports. He recently became a Cam Newton fan and dabs at any opportunity. (Even when he coughs into his elbow!) Caleb is also into Minecraft and Madden...and looks forward to video game days!

Caleb has the most incredible wit of any ten year old I know. His cerebral comedy is perfectly timed and so on point. He is so so so funny. I am seriously impressed by his timely wit. It's not always kind, but it's always amazing.

I am so grateful for this amazing boy. I always wonder what he will be when he grows up. He has such a sharp mind and doesn't miss anything. I know whatever he becomes, he is a gift to this world.

Happy birthday, Dig Dug. I love you so much!

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
