Well, Meg is almost 3 years and two weeks old, so I’d better post some pictures from her birthday! Enjoy!
Oh, Megan, weren’t you just born?
I’m so thankful for the past three years! No (more) words.

A mystery box
Posted in church, family, little things on December 8, 2009 | 4 Comments »
This red, velvet box had been sitting mysteriously on our mantel until today. The girls asked multiple times if we could take it down and open it. And what was in it. The best question came from Kate, “Mama, have I ever seen what’s in it before?” I laughed and told her yes.
We opened it [...]
Thankful for …

The sun shining in my windows.
Curtains (even though they’re lace) for those windows.
The girls playing with each other.
The laughter.
The sleeping baby.
His smile around the pacifier when he wakes up.
How he eats and eats.
That I’ll get to make huge meals for three teenagers someday, God-willing.
Josh.
His patience.
His smile.
His laugh.
His goofy sense of humor.
His surprising love for me.
How [...]
Snow!!
Posted in Belleville, kids, little things, outside, snow on November 17, 2009 | 7 Comments »
Our first snow of the season (yesterday) was every kid’s dream!
Several inches deep, it was wet – perfect for snowmen and snowballs. And plenty warm to play outside!
(Oh, and afternoon preschool was canceled so we had lots of time and we’d just read a book called Snow Day the night before!)
Here are the pictures:
I’m linking [...]
A wake-up call.

If you are tired, frustrated, scared, out of patience, out of ideas, lonely, annoyed, confused, unappreciated, sad or otherwise struggling, go read Running on E by Pete Wilson at WithoutWax.
I did.
And I saw way too much of myself in the past couple years.
But God will change that. If I let Him. And I’m sure gonna [...]
Sunshine

Sunshine.
Any sunshine, especially during this rainy week is a beautiful thing to celebrate.
The girls and I saw the sun rise (just minutes before it disappeared into the clouds for the day) on an early trip to the store Wednesday.
And I saw the morning sun shining on this fruit box in my kitchen.
I’m linking this to [...]
Siblings.

I took this picture early this morning as these two sat quietly together and played … until I interrupted to take a picture.
My sweet, bouncing baby boy is walking! Here he is trying it out yesterday at the park.
Then Kate started dancing.
And Megan started sliding … and collecting static for her hair!
I hope you get [...]
The view from four and half!
Posted in Kate, family, little things on October 16, 2009 | 7 Comments »
Kate is four and a half. I love the way her mind works. Here’s a glimpse:
This is what I saw after she helped by putting the chicken nuggets and tater tots on the cookie sheet! I laughed out loud and tried not to tip them over as I put the pan in the oven!
And then.
This [...]
A smile for doing dishes.

I got tired of looking at this next to my sink, but I (and the sweet hubby) like having it on the counter instead of in the cupboard:
So I tried this for a more attractive solution, but it wasn’t easy to pour and left soap all over the counter:
So I bought a small bottle of [...]
