The Feitner Adventure: muscles

WELCOME

I'm a full-time wife and mom of two adorable boys. When I'm not busy trying to keep up with them I enjoy photography, traveling, planning parties and a little bit of reading.

In February of 2008 I was diagnosed with an incurable terminal lung illness, though God promised me a full and complete healing. While we wait for His timing, we're taking it one day at a time, and standing in awe of how God's using all of this for His glory. The tough road we've traveled has given us a new perspective on the fragility of life. Memories are more important to us than ever before. The goal of this blog is to share some of our family life - the ups and downs, the joys and probably some of the pains as well. It's mostly meant as a personal journal of sorts, but you're welcome to share in it. We'd like to take this opportunity to say ...

WELCOME TO THE FEITNER ADVENTURE!

muscles

A girlfriend and her 3 kids came out for a week-long visit last month. Her daughter ("the girlfriend") impressed Alex with her 4 year-old sculpted arm muscles!

... He has been forever changed.

Fast forward to a few minutes ago. I think the conversation went something like this...

Alex: Daddy, my arm muscles are now getting bigger, but my leg muscles aren't yet.
Aaron: What do you want to do?
Alex: Make them bigger.
Aaron: Okay. Hang on a second. Now pull both of us instead of just Harrison.
Alex: Will that make my leg muscles bigger?
Aaron: Definitely.
Alex: Hehehe. Okay!
(my cell phone rings)
Aaron: Julia - grab the camera and get out here!
