Moser Minutes

Dear Family and Friends,

 It is hard to believe that yet another year has passed. We have had a wonderful year filled with much happiness and many blessings. The biggest news is the birth of our third son, Benson Kent Moser. He joined our family April 26th and has brought much joy to our family. Before he was born, we took the boys to Disneyland in January. They loved it and McKay about jumped out of his skin when he saw the Chimney Sweeps from Mary Poppins in the parade; he was so excited. In July we were able to go to Arizona to see Maria’s brother Dustin return from his mission to Peru and to attend the McCleve Reunion. From there we drove to Idaho to go to the Moser family reunion. Last year we did the same drive (about 2700 miles round trip) and swore we would never do it again. This year we did it again with a newborn baby.

 Benson (7 ½ months) is a very happy baby. He always has a smile for everyone he sees and it rarely goes unnoticed. He spreads happiness wherever he goes. He adores his brothers and does his best to keep up with them. He army crawls everywhere and is quick to grab anything that catches his eye. He loves to jump, can often be heard laughing for no apparent reason, and is extremely ticklish.

Maxwell (2 ½ years) constantly amazes us. He is fully potty trained and would be ready to go to kindergarten if they’d let him go at three. He knows what sounds letters make, knows his numbers, shapes, colors etc. He builds train tracks and chugs his trains every day, doesn’t get to go to the park often enough and loves to read books. He has a fun personality and is a pleasure to have in our family.

McKay (5 ½) started kindergarten this year and loves every part of it. He is quickly becoming a good reader and has made a lot of ‘best friends’. He loves primary and his teachers all love him. He enjoyed doing swimming lessons this summer and really improved a lot at playing soccer this fall. He is looking forward to playing t-ball this spring. McKay has an excitement for life and loves anything that is ‘awesome’.

 Maria keeps busy chasing our three active little boys and that seems to take all her time. She tries to make a little time to do some accounting, a little sewing, and some digital scrapbooking. She and Jordan enjoy team teaching the 16-17 year olds.

 Jordan is still working lots of hours on the San Ysidro Land Port of Entry project. He bought a new bike in August and tries to find time to fit in a ride or two each week. In November he did his first race. It was 50 miles and he is hooked!

 We hope this letter finds you healthy and happy. Best wishes for a wonderful 2013.
 Love, The Moser Family
