I often wonder if he’d be a red head like Amos or if he’d be musically gifted like Lilly.

Would he love snuggling or be a boy who only wanted hugs on his terms?

Would his eyes be brown like his dad’s or would he be covered in freckles?

What would his laugh sound like? Who would be his best friend? What would his favorite book be? Would he say Gen Alpha slang words like sigma and skibidi or would he love his mom too much to do that?

Would I be mommy or mama or mom to him?

So many questions I won’t get to answers to on this side of heaven. But I think about him today, just like every day, and I hope he’s getting a slice of strawberry cake for his heavenly birthday.

Just wrapped up my 7th trip through the Bible and every year I learn something new about God, His Word, myself… this year was transformative for me in a lot of ways. Needless to say, every trip through, my love for scripture deepens. I would LOVE for you to join me this year! @thebiblerecap makes the process SO accessible (it’s also available in Spanish and American Sign Language). John and I are also including our kids this year thanks to their new kids resources. We are so excited.

Will you join us? Share your tips below if you’ve done it before!

We often would joke that at the apocalypse, the only thing left in the world would be cockroaches and Tater girl. She’s been with us the entirety of our relationship - John got Tater in October of 2009. She’d spent the first 2+ years of her life roaming the Durham streets and birthing puppies. She’s been with us since we started dating, got married, had babies, a couple moves, the deaths of other dogs… she’s eaten entire bottles of prenatal vitamins and bags of potting soil and the arms off kid’s favorite baby dolls and been bitten by snakes and she’s run down busy highways. This girl has kept us on our toes, but she’s always been right there by our side and at our feet. At nearly 17/18 years old, Tater has been through it all with us.

It’s really a bit of a design flaw that humans have to outlive dogs.

It’s been a good run, ol’ gal. Say hey to Audrey for me. 🌈🐶 #taterdog
