I have a 9-year old nephew who gives me such joy and is so delightful and really that best thing that existed before proverbial sliced bread.

This boy is too precious and each day there is countless of us praying that he grows up into a Godly young man like Joshua. Thinking back on all his milestones, I also can’t wait to be doing something like this with my four month old nephew and getting to watch as he develops his own personality and grows up strong and TALL as he is bound to be.
