This morning, my baby…er…my 2 year-old…came to me and told me “C’mon, Mommy! C’mon!”. I followed him to the back door and we looked in awe at the beautiful sunrise. He kept exclaiming “Mommy, Mommy! Orange clouds! Lellow clouds! Blue clouds! Purple clouds!” I took this opportunity to give praise where praise was due for this beautiful display of artwork: to our glorious God.
I told him that we could get his slippers on and go on the deck for a picture. I just had to include the color image as well…

Today’s copywork assignment.
Proverbs 16:24 (ESV)
“Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health for the body”

My eldest boy (4 years old) came to me today to tell me he spelled a word. I was super excited because he had never spelled a word before. I thought it was very funny that his first spelled word was “BATMAN”, with the last “A” being an upside-down “V”. And he was even MORE excited to show me that his finger could be used to complete the “A”. He was super proud of himself.
And I was super proud of him.

This Sunday was a hard day. My 3 olders all started getting colds. Daddy took my 2 eldest to church (they sat with him instead of going to class) while my 2 babies stayed home with me. I usually unload the dishwasher before breakfast, but that “normal” is going to change now that I have a newborn. Since this chore was postponed until after half the family was shipped off to church, my #3 was super excited about helping (remember, he likes to clean). I just have to capture these “helping” moments!!!

My baby is content to sit in this swing while I run around getting things done around the house. When he does choose to fuss (which really isn’t that often), one of his older siblings is quick to come and sing him a song.
I have good kids.
