Nonnie's Boy

We have come to affectionately call Ty "Nonnie's boy." This morning he was admiring a quilt that Nonnie made (my mom) and Cara said 'Ty, do you know who made that? It's your favorite person in the whole world.' So I said "Ty, who's your favorite person?" (fully expecting him to not understand what I was asking) and he says "Nonnie" with this sheepish grin and happy eyes. So funny. No mention of Nonnie before that - he came up with that on his own. We stopped at Sonic in Burnet on our way home from Liberty Hill. The only way we could get Ty to leave LH was to tell him we were going to Sonic. The minute we back out of the drive-in, he says 'let's go to nonnie's house now' as if we were going to drive to Burnet and eat and go back to Nonnie's. Poor thing. He's in love. :)

The familia

Well our family has increased by one person. Cara Bebee, missionary to unreached people groups, is living with us for a few weeks before she embarks on her journey. It's good to have her around. She cooks, cleans and helps chase Ty. Shea and her are enjoying as much of each other as possible. Jacob and Ty are ready for Christmas. When I opened my eyes this morning I saw a fat chubby face staring at me (no it wasn't a mirror) and Ty said Merry Cistmas Daddy, but its not Cistmas yet he was quick to correct. They are so sweet and so full of energy. Ministry things are good. You can read about all that on my blog - Po's Page.

Our house is beggining to look a lot like Christmas. Shea and Cara have made it look great. I carried in the tree and got out of the way. This is a great time of year, but alwasy very busy. We have several church functions going on and it doesn't stop there. We'll be in Austin and Lubbock for Christmas. Its not a requirement, but it makes most people happy.

Well...I am going to encourage Shea to help me keep this up. Thats sounds familiar huh. Really we will make an effort this time though. Hope you are all well.
