Isaiah and "Aplaya"

I have to blog about our wonderful friends down here in L'ville. I love the Godshall kids to death and I love their mom, Natalie. Mark calls her my girlfriend....and I really like her husband (something felt weird about saying I love her husband Matt).

Natalie and I met just this past January but we have quickly grown to become great friends. She is truly an answer to prayer and such a blessing in my life. I don't think she realizes how much she means to me. Hopefully, since she reads this blog, she will get the idea. I also love how much our kids love each other. Oliver CANNOT wait to play with her son, Isaiah and daughter, Alaythia. They came over this morning and played with every single toy in the toy box. Basil looked on with desire wishing he could run around with them.

I told Oliver this morning that Isaiah and Aplaya (that's what Oliver calls her) were coming over. Before they came we had to run to the grocery store. On the way home Oliver thought we were going to their house. I kept trying to explain to him that they were coming over here. When we pulled into our driveway he broke out sobbing and crying for Isaiah and Aplaya. Tears were streaming down his cheeks. He thought we were headed to their house and was so dissapointed. When they pulled up to our house he broke out into a loud giggle jumping up and down. Something is so adorable watching Oliver get excited about his friends....
