May 10, 2013, at 9:15 pm | Remember Becky’s heavenly musings? Well, apparently my noncommittal answer didn’t satisfy her, because she asked me again recently. Only this time she came up with her own answer:
Becky: “Will there be food in heaven?
Me: “I don’t know…I think so.”
Becky: “I think there’ll only be bread and wine.”
************
Becky’s collection is still going strong. She’s got grand plans for it, too:
Becky: “I wish I could shrink the whole world into a tiny ball and then put the ball in my collection.”
************
Me, after Susie’s crayons were hovering dangerously close to the wall: "You can only write on paper.”
Susie: “If you live in a paper house, you can write on everything.”

And here is Jimmy’s first entry into my “sayings” blog posts!
When we were watching the movie, “Finding Nemo,” there was a scene where the screen became dark and the music ominous. Jimmy softly announced, “Spooky.”

May 8, 2013, at 10:15 pm | As a young girl, I remember loving a clean room and spending a lot of time picking up and organizing my belongings (where’s that energy now when I need it?). I also distinctly remember being inspired by a certain Berenstain Bears book to keep my room clean. Guess what book the girls recently chose from the library?
And no sooner had I finished reading it to Susie than she looked around, declared her room to be too messy, and asked for boxes (from Costco, specifically) to organize her stuff. I guess the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree! Now I can only hope that Susie sticks with it longer than I did!

or feeding him,
Becky is such a huge help with Danny these days. I’m so thankful for her!

Danny stayed high and dry, but he didn’t seem to mind!

Why, in a “flower pot,” of course!
I guess that “pot” has many uses!

ABOUT US I'm blessed to be saved by the grace of God, loved by my wonderful husband Jim, and embraced by my twin girls, Rebecca Faith and Susanna Joy and my sons Jimmy and Danny. I started this blog in May 2008 when I was hospitalized for pre-term labor at 24 weeks gestation. The Lord allowed me to keep the girls inside until they were 34 weeks along, and on July 27th, Rebecca made her debut, followed by Susanna, five minutes later, on July 28th. We ecstatically welcomed Jimmy into our lives on April 25th, 2011, and Danny on August 31, 2012. This blog has been a personal journal of faith and motherhood and the only way I can remember which child did what and when. Thanks for stopping by to share in my Faith and Joy! Feel free to e-mail me at: [email protected]. |
