A new arrow for Shane's quiver

The Lord has blessed us with another child. Our little one was born the day after Father's Day. I was hoping that the baby would be born on Father's Day, but the next day was great for me. I am now trying to recuperate, and get back to normal. Shane has been off for the past two weeks and will go back to work on Monday. It will be my first day with all four by myself. I remember the day that Shane went back to work after our first was born, and I was nervous. Now, less than six years later, he is going back to work while we have four at home. I pray that the Lord will give me guidance as I seek to raise these children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

Joi,
I can't imagine why you don't have much time ;)
I seem to be able to get on once a day. That is at the moment. TJ is not walking, running, grabbing or otherwise. He will be soon!
I hope we can stay connected more. You guys give Charlie and I hope. You are doing it, having 4 kids and surviving on one income.
Do you still use cloth diapers? I am starting to use them. We got so many diapers at our showers that I just now can use them. Oh, and TJ just now fits into them!

I hope we can stay connected more, too. You and Charlie are an encouragemet to us. You guys actually want more than just two kids!! Shane and I are not alone.

I stopped using cloth diapers after I had #3. I could not use cloth diapers since I had two in diapers. I did not have time to change diapers every 15-30 minutes, and I certainly did not have the time to do all of the laundry. I hope to switch back to them sometime. I have a friend that used Fuzzi-Bunz, and really liked them. She said that clean up wasn't bad, either. I hope one day to use them. But we will see. It's a blessing that you all were given so many diapers, though.
When are you two coming back to Memphis? Did you say September at your shower? I hope it will be soon so we can meet TJ.
