Sara in August

Nathan in August

August was a busy month. On the 2nd, we started homeschool with Nathan (and a little with Caroline). Nathan also started soccer - with Daddy coaching. But the most important thing that happened was that Nathan was baptized at church. For a long time he has said that he believed in God, believed that we sin, and believed that Jesus died on the cross for us. But we didn't want him to do anything publicly until he really made it his own faith (and how do you figure out when that is?). At the beginning of August he really started asking more questions and eventually wanted to be baptized to let everyone know what he believes. So, we let him. The Bible says that we should all have the faith of a child. We pray that he has truly made Jesus the Lord of his life and that it's a decision that will guide the rest of his life. And I included the last picture down there just so you'll know that he's still enjoying his trains (when he can keep Sara out).
