Sweet Boys!




The other night I went over to a girlfriends house and got back home around 9pm. My husband had already put the boys to bed so I went in their room to check on them and kiss them good night. M was still awake and he asked me if I would play with him.
N was sound asleep and my husband went for a run so I said: Sure, I'll play with you!
We snuggled under a blanket and talked about his day and how excited he was about getting to go to Disney World. It was such a special time and we had so much fun together. It's rare that I get one on one time with M because N is always there.
At one point he yawned and told me he was tired.

Anyway, when my husband got back home he put M back to bed. When he came out of the bedroom he told me that M had asked him if he would pray with him.

Ohh! That's what he asked me to do!
He asked me to pray and I heard play!

I think that God knew that we needed that time together!


Conversation with N:


Mommy why did God make Ticks?
I don't know N

Why did God make wasps?
I don't know, we will have to ask him when we get to heaven

Okay.

Summer Recap




What a busy summer we had! We started the summer off with N's birthday in June. He was so excited and it was such a special day that we got to share with my sister and her kids who live in Colorado but have actually been at N's birthday party two years in a row. I can't believe my baby is four! He is so full of energy, engaging and talkative! He can be very sweet and loves to hug and kiss and cuddle. He is also very stubborn which is a trait that I know will serve him well in life.

We spent several days at White Water in Branson which is not that far away. We actually got season tickets this year because we live so close now, and we have gotten our money's worth. But it was such a mild summer that we didn't go as much as we were planning too.

We finished off the summer with a camping trip with friends and M's birthday party all rolled into one weekend!

M turned six this year, lost his two bottom teeth and started Kindergarten all in a span of two weeks! Needless to say I was a little emotional! I am so proud of him, he is growing into such a smart, funny kid! He is kind and caring and sensitive of other peoples feelings. What a good kid. And he always tells me how pretty I am!
