Family Fun
The weather was beautiful today so we spent the AM at the zoo! I packed a lunch and we stayed until nap time! After naps we played and then went to go get ice cream after dinner. It was such a wonderful day. Bedtime became hectic with disobedience, consequences, and tears and yet the whole time I kept thinking, "what a blessed day! I don't want to forget this!" Love my family.

Elijah's 5th Bday
Today would have been Elijah's 5th birthday. I still miss him daily. I love him very much. And I am so thankful for the promise that I will spend eternity with him. I love my first born!

That's enough
I was playing around with Jonah this morning and he slipped out of my hands and landed on his head. He began crying... I began giving him lots of kisses telling him I was sorry. After the 5th kiss on his forehead he said, "that's enough"
Haha. Love that boy!
Haha. Love that boy!

Overheard Prayer
Dear Havana,
I was working on the computer today during your "rest time" -- you were playing quietly with a few of your toys when I heard you say, "Where is the monkey and lion? (I hear you move around trying to find them) Dear God, do you know where the monkey and the lion are? I can't find them. Will you help me? (You Look around some more). God, can you come down from heaven and help me find them?"
I wanted to bottle that moment up and keep it forever and ever. I love your faith. I love your innocence. I love you.

Sweet Goodnights!
Tonight as I was tucking Havana in she said, "mom, I love you- you will always be my best friend."
Me: "thanks, Havana - I always want to be your best friend."
H: "I love you all the time."
Me: I love you all the time too
H: And when you hurt my feelings I still love you. (I don't think I actually hurt her feelings but we had just read a story about a boy whose feelings were hurt)
Me: well, that's good. I hope I never hurt your feelings though.
H: and when I disobey you will always love me.
Me: Yep, I will always always love you- even if you disobey.
Love sending her to bed on that note.
