Spirituality by preschoolers.

"Olivia, God says share!"
"No, Max, no share!"
"God is right next to you, Olivia."
"No he not, can't see him."
"God is invisible, he's a superhero. He's going to give you a swift kick in the pants."
"No swift kick!!"
"Olivia, he's sad, you won't share your princesses with me."


I love sitting back sometimes and just listening to the kids play. It's never a dull moment.

Holidays are over, but the fun isn't!

We've been trying to get the boys to read more at home. Cooper took it upon himself to read to Olivia this past weekend. She brought him almost every book off of her bookshelf and he just sat there and kept reading.



Olivia has embraced the primping time on Sunday mornings. She pushes me out of the way, if I'm trying to get myself ready. Don't send hate-mail. The coffee cup was mine; seconds before this picture was taken I was standing where she is (without a step stool) and finishing my hair and make-up.

Winter fun

Travis had to ge in on the sledding fun with all the kids. He and Maddox pretended to be Superman. I love where we live; there are always kids outside playing (most of the time within view of one of our windows, so we can watch from the warmth of the inside.



Toby loves his new chew toy that Santa brought him; it's a new record, the toy is still in 1 piece after 3 weeks of "love".
