Photos to Make Anyone Smile

Honey has been running at the park across the street.  He goes 3-4 nights a week – usually after the kids are in bed.  Now that the light patterns are changing, he is having to adjust his schedule somewhat and this is the result.  EVERY time he starts to do any stretching, the girls run over to “stetch”, as KB would call it.  I call it precious!

I have a picture of me from when I was maybe four years old.  My hair is all up in rollers and I am standing in a nightgown grinning like a cheshire cat.  Tah Dah!

Try to ignore the sour cream and onion around his mouth long enough to notice MY SON IS WEARING TWO PAIRS OF GLASSES.

We “love” Ms. Pattycake.  The kids love her.  Anyway, on one of the DVDs she sings a song about Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane.  All the kids in the DVD get on their knees and sing a song about praying.  KB and I watched it the other morning and I looked up to find this:
The photo is dark because I almost broke a toe trying to get my camera and take a photo before she looked up.  Oh that she would learn to “say ‘yes’ to the Father”.

Bubba drew this yesterday. This is the first picture anyone in our house has drawn solo that has looked like anything. It’s a person, see? With GLASSES!
I love that.

Little Moments, Big Deals

Today we played outside and only ONE of my children was wearing a pull-up! (Little)

Tonight Little was picking up the Legos. She had been defiant, there had been discipline, and I was frustrated. After watching her lay on her side and pick up individual Legos, one at a time, using one hand I said, “Sit up and use two hands.” Little sat up and grabbed the Lego with two hands. That’s right – a 1″x1″ Lego with two hands. (She wasn’t being ugly – she is just THAT literal.)

When Bubba prayed before bed last night he said, “Dear God, Thank you for your son. . .give His life. . . Peter Pan. Amen.”

Little has been singing all weekend. It is so AWESOME to hear her monotone voice belting out, “Will you decide now to follow Jesus?” or the ABCs.

In the car this morning Little said, “Tomorrow is Thursday and I’ll go to school.” I said, “Tomorrow you will go to school but it is actually Monday tomorrow. Remember our song?” I break into a song we sing about the days of the week. After going through it TWICE I said, “So, today is Sunday (sung to the tune of the song) what is tomorrow?” Little replied, “Thursday and I’ll go to school.”

Our new Pastor is such a great gift to our church. I can’t wait for Sundays!
