Grace in small things, March 8, 2017
- It'a been a banner week for wildlife, with a beautiful red fox a few days ago and yesterday 2 huge moose at the bend in the road and also an eagle flying low and right above us before going into the ice rink for skating...
- Luke to Sis tonight: "That's ingenious!"
- Luke walked the dog with me earlier and picked up a couple small branches and some construction trash (little pieces of wood, plastic that I think help nails). He and his grandma made a craft out of it, this lovely little tree he's going to bring to preschool, where they are studying trees at the moment. I'm going to have to get a picture of it, it's so cool...
- Been taking longer than normal to put the kids down at night, sometimes staying with them until they fall asleep. Loving the extra snuggle time...
- Zo and I have started counting sheep as part of her bedtime routine, because she loves sheep so much, they are always white with grey around their face and black feet and they live in a meadow with a pink fence (of course). The number varies from about 20 to 50. I run them down her back and they jump the fence and we count and then they run some more. She likes me to make it tickle so I get the little squeals of laughter from her too...love...
