Caleb had his 12th birthday a couple of weeks ago, and I had gathered some pictures to post but just haven't gotten around to putting them on the blog...better late than never, right?!
Caleb's name is perfect for him. When we picked it, we loved some of the verses in scripture about Caleb and the heart he had. One of my favorites, and it seems to fit our Caleb perfectly, is in Numbers when the Israelites are preparing to enter the Promised Land after 40 years in the wilderness. Caleb, who at this time was about 90 years old, says, "I'm as ready to fight today as I was 40 years ago!" Now, you've gotta' love that heart! He never doubted His Lord's power and plan. He didn't waiver after all those years. He finished strong. That's a real man. That's our prayer for our Caleb. He's well on his way, and with the grace and strength of our Lord He will be a mighty man of God one day, too.
Here are a few more pictures...We love you, Caleb D!!!
