Our sweet Brock

I told you some about Hannah last time. Our next child is our son, Brock. What a wonderful boy he is! Brock loves to sing. You can hear him humming or singing at most any time of the day. Sometimes I wonder if he doesn't sing in his sleep! :)

Brock is full of questions. When I give my "mommy" answers, he'll ask me what every word means. "What does 'probably' mean?" "What does 'maybe' mean?" "What does 'in a minute' mean?" "What does 'I might' mean?" Honestly, the boy asks questions all the time. And he loves numbers...on clocks...on signs...on stereos...anywhere there are numbers, he's focused on them and what they are telling him.

Brock keeps us laughing at life. Brent was reading out of the Bible to Brock and Hannah before bed one night. He was in the part of the Old Testament where the Law was being given. (Don't ask me WHY they were reading this part...I have no idea!) Anyway, Brent read the verses about killing disobedient children. Hannah asked if people still do that. Brent told her no, but some parents send their kids to military schools if they don't obey at home. Brock took a long, hard look at Brent, pointed his finger at his daddy and said, "YOU DON'T DO THAT!" He was quite obedient for several days after that!! :)

We are thankful that God chose to give us a boy as part of our family. He does bring a different perspective to life. We love our Brock!!
