"This Johnny's house!"

All along we have been calling our house "daddy's house" when we looked at our family and home book with them in Uganda. so yesterday we were starting to say this is  OUR house Hayden's and Garak's and Mommy's and Daddy's house.  Early in the morning when I took him to the bathroom (specially designed by my friend, Becky, who also painted the giraffe on the boys' wall) he exclaimed enthusiastically "Momma! Ditch one ijz niy-tch!" [This one is nice]  Late in the morning, we were outside playing and he ran his hand along the side of the house and said "Dady's houch ijz niy-ch" [Daddy's house is nice].  Later in the afternoon, Hayden climbed up onto the couch and said "Momma! Ditch ijz niy-tch" [This is nice] Ditch Johnny's Houch! [This is Johnny's house!] LOVE IT!  In essence:  I'm home, we finally made it. Thank you Jesus!
