Grace in small things, June 13, 2016
- Kids playing "boxing" after dinner, which involves each of them going to opposite ends of the couch with a throw pillow and then running towards each other until the pillows (and they) crash and much laughter ensues...
- Gosh, the kids are starting to get some complex concepts, like tonight when they were hugging good night Luke said to Zo, "When I say 'hug tighter' you hug looser, and when I say 'looser' you hug tighter." And that's exactly what Zo did...
- Reading "When Aunt Mattie Got Her Wings," which deals so sweetly with the death of an aunt (AKA a 99-year-old chicken) and stirs up all sorts of questions from my little ones...but, I don't know...I'm glad we can talk openly about such tough subjects as death and grief...
- The smell of rain (it rained on and off all day)...oh, how I love that smell...
- A whole day at home...we love to get out and about, but a day spent in is wonderful too...
