Almost! Almost!!! I’ve never been able to get more than two kids to look at me for a photo, but I still love this one.
No gift can top handmade cards and kisses, but I was pretty tickled to get an IPHONE on Sunday!!! I’ve been dying for one for ONE reason and ONE reason only–INSTAGRAM. I haven’t completely figured out how to navigate Instagram yet, but it sure is easy to snap and edit pics.

Tuesday’s Prayer
“A joyful heart makes a cheerful face.”
Proverbs 15:13 (nasb)
This picture makes me laugh!!
…
“We have joy, dear Father, because we can take refuge in you.
You provide our safety, our security, our eternal hope.
Because of those loving assurances, enable us to see the joy,
feel the joy and even twirl with joy.
Thank you that you are our reason for joy each day.”
Marilyn Meberg (Joy Breaks, Page 276)

Saturday night means movie night!
I like all our pre-movie activities as much as snuggling and watching the actual show.
…
If your kids enjoy documentaries put Being Elmo and Born to be Wild on your to-watch list!

Toys & Books
I’m always on the look-out for sweet little antique toys and books for the kids! Most of our collection comes from my dad who sends us care packages every month or so. The kiddos love opening PAPA’S packages– they never know what vintage treasures they might find!!
…
These Child Craft books are super special to me. My dad had an identical set of encyclopedias in his home when he was growing up.
…
Oh how I love these colors!
…
The other side of the bedroom.
Getting ready for naptime.
I don’t even want to know what is smeared on the wall?!

…
Wishing you a WONDERFUL day!
