a bit of July

Wow – July flew by. There is not much blogging going on here. It’s better to be out DOING than only blogging… but still. My energy level lately is zilch. I’ve been taking naps. Weird. I’ve been trying to drink tons of water. The littles always swipe and contaminate my cup. It’s hot and slightly humid. But we have sunshine! And blue skies! and Clouds!

Tru has lots of smiles in the summertime. He gets to play with sticks and rocks. Exploring is his love.

We’re attempting to have some type of schedule for Abe’s sake. Teaching the kids to work… and enjoy their labors is a tricky business.

Max loves getting dressed tidy for church. He’s holding up his pants so they won’t get wet on the morning dew grass.

JuJu is staying with us until she moves to Virginia. She is so good at braiding. I MUST LEARN… TODAY! She is a darling friend for Hannah.
