First trip to the beach and first car... all in the same week!

Caleb and I went to the beach three times last week. It was so beautiful... and we both really enjoyed it! Here's a photo of Caleb's first real visit to the beach:

Last night was Caleb's first experience driving this little beauty:

I am reading Noel Piper's Treasuring God in Our Traditions and let me just say that I have been thoroughly encouraged by this woman's ideas on teaching our children to love and treasure Christ from an early age. I am so excited to begin doing things like family devotions and teaching Caleb about world missions and about loving other people in real and tangible ways. I am sure that I will have excerpts to share with you soon. Right now, though, I am just enjoying reading and underlining for myself. ;)
