Self Help

Didn't know where to start. So many possibilities for improvement.
Opened scriptures with a prayerful heart.
Found an area to improve. Took notice throughout the day. No improvement made, except for the notice of the specific instances where I could have improved.

I guess that's what God thought I could handle. :)

Kinesiology

Keenan is running down the street with the delighted laugh of a child who is doing something they think is amazing and new. He turns to me and says, "My bones are making me run!"

Walking on water

How did Jeaus walk on water?
He had invisible floaties on his feet.

New Clothes

Keenan streaked naked onto the front porch.
"Come back here you!" I shouted. "You need to put on some underwear!"
Putting one hand behind him so as to cover his backside, he yells back, while continuing to run away from me, "This is my underwear!"

Pre-K

Today was Naomi's first day of pre-k. She was singing as we drove: the numbers in Spanish, A Child's Prayer, Angels We Gave Heard on High, Jesus Wants Me For A Sunbeam. And then, as we are approaching to door to her class I hear it. Dearth Vader's theme song.

Water Allergy

Adara had her first swim lesson on Wednesday. Afterwards, we were sitting at the table together eating a snack.

"Is anyone allergic to water?" she asked.
"Well, if people don't drink water, they'll die," I said.
"Could they just drink juice? Oh, but juice has water in it."

***************************

After a day at the beach, Naomi came home exhausted. In the morning, she came to me after getting dressed and said,
"I just can't stand anymore!"
"Great," I thought, as Naomi slid down a wall and laid down, "What could anyone have possibly done already to get her this upset?"
Out loud I said, "What can't you stand, Naomi."
"My feet are still asleep!"
I, insensitively, laughed out loud. "Why are your feet asleep, sweetheart?"
"Cuz I'm just so tired!"

2013 Summer Highlights

At the beginning of the summer, we tried out the rock climbing gym for a few weeks. Our neighbor successfully motivated Naomi to try it. She even touched the ceiling!

A little closer so you can kinda tell it's Naomi.

Summer is fun
