the 100 days party

We celebrated last night and it was a LOT of fun! Isaac filled his role admirably, being passed from one set of arms to another and (mostly) cooperating with all the lovin' he received despite being tad bit hungry and staying up past his bedtime :) Such is the life of a 100-day-old celebrity.



The girls had a grand time, mostly hanging out near the snack table - they quickly realized I was unable to simultaneously host guests, visit with the many friends there, manage the "everyone needs to hold Isaac" melee, and supervise their snacking. With plenty of college aged "aunts" and "uncles" to join in the fun, they ate to their hearts content. I gave up counting when I saw Lydia eagerly biting into her third cookie. She hardly ate breakfast, presumably because she was still busy digesting cookie.

This morning when Matt asked these sweet devoted sisters what their favorite part of Isaac's 100 days party was they answered "cookies" and "M&Ms".

[As a side note, Matt also asked, "who is the most important person in the whole wide world?" Julianna's confident reply? "Me!!"]

Anyways, back to Isaac. We chose the name 柯庆永 ke qing yong. Qing means celebrate and yong means eternity, eternal. It is our deepest hope and desire that Isaac will know Jesus and join in the eternal celebration of saints rejoicing at the throne of the conquering King reigning in Heaven.


We love these fun friends who joined in the celebration, and we are so delighted to celebrate yet another 100 days party for one of our sweet children.
