A New Arrival



Over the last week, we've experienced a new addition to our little household. Lindsay and I, having been a couple for several years now, have greeted the new arrival with joy as well as with all the hesitancy that accompanies these forays into the unknown.

A couple days ago, Lindsay was chilling on the futon when all of a sudden she started laughing out loud. I looked up from the kitchen, where I was puttering industriously (cooking dinner and washing the dishes, as I recall), and she called me over, pointing in excitement.

"Look at him! It looks like he's studying the painting, just staring at it quietly. He's just sitting there, appreciating it!"

And indeed, so it appeared.

Maybe it's time for us to have children.

Oh, my. "Your great learning is driving you insane!"

And, if you know whom I just quoted, extra points for you.

Arie, I think it is time...

Thanks for the bonus points opportunity, Kevin. That would be... (jepoardy music)...governor Festus addressing Paul (of Tarsus)! Bling, bling!

And you may have a point.

Unfortunately, no cash prize today. Simply delight in knowing that, if Bible trivia were the basis for entry to heaven, you would pass with flying colors.
But let's not jump aboard the works train...

That's right, grace it is. Grace with natural outworkings that result in more that Bible trivia.

You know, if you have kids, they won't be contemplating Van Goh for a long time; they'll be painting their own Van Goh's on the wall. :p

After that last post...why do I feel this inexplicable sense of dread? ;)
