ctr

I remember when we were pregnant with Levi and trying to decide on names I really really wanted to name him Richard after my dad, but call him Ricky. Little Ricky. I loved it. Then I remember my niece Abby rooting for it because then the initials of our children would be C T R.  As much as I think he would have made an adorable Ricky...Levi is so perfect for him. 
Fast forward four years and the boys just pointed out to me that we do have C T R initials in our family. (really, it was not planned) 
I think Levi can stand for love, maybe? 

We are so grateful for good primary teachers that reiterate in their classrooms what we try to teach at home. And sometimes I think they listen better there then they do here. Levi loves the new sign language he has learned there.


My biggest hope is that you, each of you, 
will have that desire to make good choices throughout your life. 
To be the one to stand up for what you believe, 
do the right thing when so many around you are not, 
to fight for what is right.
