Lest I get too caught up in schedules, activities, and what we are or are not accomplishing each day...I pray I don't forget to take time to enjoy the small people in my house! Some days it seems that they are too much of a distraction from what I "really" need to do (laundry, cooking, homeschooling the older kids) that it's easy to forget that there was a time in my life when I ONLY spent time with littles! It hit me the other day that I rarely spend as much time on the floor holding and playing with these little guys the way I used to with Charis, Tobin, and Arden when they were young. Granted...it's getting much harder to get OFF the floor nowadays, ha! But still...Lord Jesus, please help me to make the most of every opportunity to love these precious treasures you've given to us.

| Our favorite time of the day: when Daddy comes home from work! |
 |
| Know anyone with a great bed head?! How about a fantastic hand-knitted sweater?? |
 |
| Tummy time! This picture makes me giggle because Lucan is ALWAYS in motion (notice the blurry feet) and because Charis recently resuscitated Doof Dog (by stuffing him and sewing on a bandana to cover the gaping hole). |
 |
| Guess who lost his first tooth?! Oh, the trauma! There were tears. (Many tears.) And blood. (Lots of blood.) And a total lack of excitement or concern about whether a tooth fairy would bring recompense. |
 |
| You know what's great about being two? You can wake up and decide, "I want to be a pirate today!" And no one looks askance at you at all! |
 |
| The bib says it all! Numero Sette may have completely upended our lives, but we wouldn't trade him for the world! |
