Whole Wheat Lemon Blueberry Waffles

周一快乐！希望每个人都有一个令人难以置信的复活节周末，与朋友和家人一起庆祝！

三年前的今天，迈克（Mike）和我有我们珍贵的小男孩卡森（Cason），我想今天花一些时间来纪念他！{所以这将是一个妈妈和她的小男孩说话}

It took us a while to get pregnant, about a year, but as soon as we saw that plus sign on the indicator, our hearts were overjoyed! We had been anxiously waiting that good news and when it finally came we were in shock, but the best kind of shock!

The first thing in my mind was to pick a name. I wanted your name to be something that was significant, that meant something, that would be something you could walk into as you grew up.

卡森，您的全名是指敬虔的战士，我们有目的地为您命名。这就是您的身份，不要相信世界可能告诉您的事情！

你是一个人的力量,一个忠诚的人,一个人of compassion, of wisdom, a man of honor, a man who loves the Lord with all your heart, a man of humility, a man who puts others before himself, a man of mercy and grace, and a man who is fierce and will fight for what he believes him.

As you have been growing up your mom and dad have loved seeing how your mind works. You are so smart! You catch on to the littlest things and then start doing them ….. and doing them well! You speak like such a little man, have a big imagination, are constantly curious, and asking why something works. Please never stop letting your mind run free, even if mommy doesn’t know how to explain to you why there is rain in the clouds.

I love how you always want to be like or with daddy. When he is outside doing lawn work, you are outside with your headphones, wheel barrel, and lawn mower. When he is fixing something in the house, you get your hammer and nails and help. You long to be just like daddy, even to the point of being as “BIG” as daddy is.

You have such a servants heart. You are always wanting to help and be involved with whatever someone is doing. If we are cleaning the bathroom, you want a job. If we are bringing groceries in, you want to have your own bag to bring in too. Whenever mommy is in the kitchen you are my little Sou Chef, you will not let a dish go without tasting it first. {especially when it comes to cookies}

I love how you light up when you see someone you know or how you are shy and hide behind our legs when its someone you don’t know. You are cautious but brave. You are strong and manly but also very gentle and loving.

Some of my favorite memories are when you curl up on the couch right next to me, not letting any space in between, just so we can watch your favorite show. {which right now is Paw Patrol} I love how when I’m sick or have a headache you crawl up next to me, put your hand on my head and pray “Jesus, I pray for mommy. Please help her feel better. In Jesus name Amen.” The faith that you have is so sweet and precious, it helps me understand what it means when God calls for us to have a “childlike faith.” I love that you will sit in the car, sing worship songs with me and raise your hands. It melts my heart every time!

你带来了这么多joy to our lives. We are incredibly blessed and honored to be your parents and pray every day that we would raise you {by the grace of God} to be the man that God, desires you to be! Happy Birthday sweet boy!

Today, in honor of Cason’s birthday, we are making waffles! This kid could live on Mac & Noodles {what we call mac & cheese}, cheese, scrambled eggs, chocolate, and Pancakes or Waffles! Can you blame him though? All of those things need to have their own food group – good stuff, right?!

So instead of making a cake for his birthday {which I am this weekend for his pirate party}, I am making waffles!

TheseWhole Wheat Lemon Blueberry Waffleshave a slight lemony taste, with a hint of almond, and then are packed with fresh juicy blueberries. The waffles are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, basically everything you want in a waffle and more!

We love to eat them fresh off the waffle press but they are great to freeze or store in the refrigerator for the next day! Hope you get a chance to make them!
