"The poorest, the weakest, the simplest child, is born for immortality. This value outweighs the entire material universe, no matter how small a mark this child makes on it. The tiniest infant owns a deathless intellect, and is as immortal as the Father of spirits. No one can tell what this child will become."

~ A Prebyterian Pastor who died in 1873


"And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise."

~ (Deuteronomy 6:6-7)

Ready Set Race

This Saturday Stuart had a race in Birmingham at the Barber Motor Speedway, Jack and I tagged along since we do not often get to see him race. We also met Aunt Annie and she came to spend time with Jack. This place is so cool, they had awesome sculptures around as well...


Of course you couldn't miss these beauties, I assume they use them to race on the track. They also have a motor museum there, we didn't get to go but I think it would bee fun to check it out sometime.




Aunt Annie and Jack played the whole time, he was such a good baby until Andrea did an impression of Aunt Sophie pitching a fit which involved screaming (as any good fit would) and Jack's little lip curled up and quivered right before he turned into full meltdown. She tried to make him laugh by throwing his blankie over his head but as you can imagine this made it worse.


Stuart did so good he was in the lead for most of the race and his team Tria Market came in 3rd.


Daddy stopped in for a photo opp right before he was off to the races (sorry these aren't in chronological order)


If you look REALLY REALLY close I have put a red circle around Stuart so you can see, but also telling you he is at the head of the pack would have been just as good :)





Jack took some time to play on his pallet...



Laid back and watched the race...

Again, daddy in the front...










And a little tickle time with Aunt Annie


What a great day!
