Haircuts and Camo

Eric took Sam to Kids' Hair last night to get his hair cut, and asked for a "military cut". He looked a year older when he came home! Eric also cut Daniel's hair at home, and he did a great job! They just happened to be in camouflage this morning, so I thought it was a fitting combination for a blog post. They are both growing up so fast!

Sharing is Sweet

Sam was eating some yogurt this morning, and decided to share some with his little brother who was playing with the pots and pans in the kitchen. I didn't even ask him to do it...he thought of it all on his own! My heart sings when I see my children being kind to each other. Thankfully, they are kind more often than not! ;-)

Snowy Sunrise

"It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness!" -Lam 3:22,23


This was sunrise at our house today! It reminds me of the fresh, new, clean start that we get every morning! ;-)

Let it Snow!

Well, here it is...the first "real" snow of the season! It is still coming down, and WeatherBug is predicting 4-7" of the fun stuff. The kids are so excited, and they are looking forward to making snow angels, snowmen, forts, etc. I'm looking forward to all of the good old-fashioned exercise they will get playing out there, sloshing through the snow and burning up some of that little kid energy! I only let them play on the deck unless Eric goes out with them, then they have almost an acre of yard to play in, since our neighbor sold and moved his house out. We are almost all by ourselves out here! ;-)

Our Cute Kids

I just had to share this picture...they are all smiling and looking at the camera at the same time, yay! Although, Sam has his "shy smile" going...which is NOT typical for him. ;-)
