16 Weeks

16 weeks ago, this little boy joined our family. He is growing like a weed and fills our home with his joyous smiles.

At 16 weeks, baths are no longer a traumatic experience. I wouldn't say he loves them yet, but he is warming up to them. I have had a few smiles in the tub and I am sure the giggles will be coming.

Naps are better. He is much better at falling to sleep, which is a welcomed relief to me. However, in this last week, he has gone back to getting up twice (or more) at night, instead of the once I had grown used to. Hopefully, this is a short lived phase, as I was really enjoying getting several hours of sleep in a row.

Joash smiles very easily now and coos all of the time. If this is any indication, we will have a very talkative boy some day. He is just starting to roll over. He has rolled both directions once, but he is not doing it consistently. Most of the time he just rolls onto his side and then back on his back.

It is so fun to see him grow and change every day. What a blessing we have!

Emissary by Thomas Locke

When you open the pages of Emissary by Thomas Locke, you enter a world quite different from our own. Magic is practised, but only in certain places and ways. There are legends and myths of what happened thousands of years ago. And a dark, evil force is slowly threatening the peace this world has known for the last thousand years. And the one person who may have the answer to it all is an unlikely hero named Hyam. As a child, Hyam studied in the Long Hall with the magicians who know and practice magic. His gift was to be able to learn languages with an astounding speed. Yet, he was dismissed from the hall and only returned when his mother begged him too on her death bed. Hyam soon discovers he has powers beyond the mastery of language and understand the the fate and future of this world rests in his hands.

When the younger sister Pete was separated from as a child shows up in Sleeping Grass with her eleven-year-old son, Pete is forced to face a past he buried long ago, and Wilma discovers her long-awaited chance at redemption may come at a higher cost than she's willing to pay.
