Dreaming of a white Easter?!

Palm Sunday
Our little man looked so handsome today for church. Today the children’s choirs had the honor of waiving the palm branches in the procession for both services. The kids all did so well and had so much fun being part of the service. From the get go, today was just a very special day. We all managed to get ready and out the door thirt [...]
Sunflowers for Mommy
…a beautiful Spring morning beckons children to come outdoors. The fresh scents and bright colors all so much to celebrate. The voice of an overjoyed little girl as she rushes back into the house bearing gifts for her mommy. “Mommy!, mommy! I got you some sunflowers from my garden!”
A huge smile on her face, her a [...]
Laughter, The Best Medicine
We regularly try to dialog with the kids about their day and this evening was no exception. Just before prayers we asked each of them to say two things that they like about the other. Hayden leaned over to Gillian to look into her eyes (at this point we are expecting him to blurt an “I love you!”) and said with that oh so cool sou [...]
Spring Break Blues
Hayden’s first Spring Break has been plagued with the boredom blues.? Unfortunately, Hayden’s mom has not been feeling so well. For the that last two days we have missed out on some Zoo trips and play dates.? Mom has been feeling guilty and prays that the rest of the week she could make it up to them. “If only we could pla [...]
The little things……

Today both of my kids were singing Hymns that they have been learning in Sunday school and when I [...]
Proud mommy
A friend of mine whose daughter goes to PreK with Hayden told me of a good deed that made me feel like I am doing something right.? Hayden has always been a very kindhearted kid and today he reached out to a classmate in need of a friend.? I heard that a friend of his was all alone on the play ground and he walked up to her and said [...]
Bubbles…bloop bloop bloop…...
Today we played around with dish soap, water, food coloring, straws and paper. Our objective was to make textured, colored paper. In the process we had lots of fun with bubbles. Hayden blew and blew and his bowl looked much like Epcot. Please view the pictures of our fun experiement! In case you were wondering, we did get some co [...]
The Luck of the Irish?
Leprechauns! Leprechauns! Those crazy Leprechauns had a lot of fun in Hayden’s classroom in the middle of the night! They walked around leaving green foot prints all over their classroom, they moved the furniture, mixed up the kids cubbies, played with all of the toys! They had a huge party and made a huge mess! The kids came in th [...]
March Madness
A chance to catch my breath and recap the past couple of weeks. A few of the fun things going on in our lives and some that are just plain noteworthy.
1. Kip and I got a weekend away from it all to reconnect. We were at a Couples Retreat up at Horn Creek. We reconnected with each other and with our love of the great outdoors. Not only was th [...]
