Faith precedes the miracle.
You cannot dream yourself into a character: you must hammer and forge yourself into one.

Brennen @ his B-Day party making flarp.
The science lab filled with wonderfully chemical type things.
Brennen engineers a go-kart.
Audrey eats her creation.
The party set up.
We had a very fun party with Brennen last week. He turned six and invited some friends from the ward. We've decided that summer birthdays stink because no one is around to celebrate with. We'll have to think about that for next year. Daddy put on a great chemistry magic show complete with explosions and dangerous chemicals. There was slime to drink and green cupcakes to eat. Brennen's presents included: Birthday dollars from Great Granny/Grandpa Stevens and Great Grandma/Grandpa Turner. Geo Trax Zoo and railway from nanna, papa, and maddie mango. Birthday outfit, Stewart Little, and transformer placemat w/stickers from Nana Pat and Papa Ron. A chemistry set from Brother and Sister Hunter in our Ward. Fun connect robot building set from Aunt Britty and Uncle Jason. Muddgy Moose from Aunt Lindsey and Uncle Zane. Cowboy dress up from Ethan. A hover helicopter from Kennedee. And from Mom and Dad and Audrey 2 science sets, a money match game, and a violin. Thank you to all for the fun gifts and happy birthday wishes.
