We Have a Reason

We recently moved from Florida to Ohio for Ryan's job (we are originally from Ohio so this move isn't so shocking to our system). The move was as you can guess long! We in the Hill family rarely understand the meaning of hurry and do something...we often take the long way, but that ok because we learn so much along the way!

While we knew this adventure was going to be long and stressful at times we were not prepared for the loss of Landon's beloved fish Swimmy while traveling. While it was a very heart-wrenching time, we were given the opportunity to share Heavenly Fathers plan for us with Landon, which not only helped him but in turn helped us too! We also explained to him that in a few weeks once we were settled in Ohio we would get him another fish! Landon was very good about caring for Swimmy so we knew he could handle the resposiblity and that he enjoyed having a fish!

Last Thursday we decided it was time to get Landon his new fish!  His favorite color is red so it is only fitting that his new fish is red! He has named him Reason :)

I am not exactly sure how he came up with the name but it has stuck...and its amusing for instance when saving his picture to the computer my computer read saving reason! Landon goes around telling people that he has a Reason to which he then follows up with he is a fish! We are very happy to have Reason as a part of our family :)
