mom … by garth brooks

My mom sent me this video this morning… in honor of little Scotty and me. Oh – it’s so true. I think it’s hard for little ones to come to such a new place. but I know God does not leave these littles ones comfortless. He gives us angels round about… he gives us mothers […]

The six little Smith babes

Now before you scroll to the bottom (where you’ll see answers), see if you can tell which baby is which. Even some of the boys are confusing me (and I picked the pictures!!) And yeah – the girls are much easier to guess. Here are the answers…key as follows: H.annah A.braham M.axwell T.ruman E.liza S.cotland

Truman’s Life as of late

Truman is having a great time at preschool this fall. He learned to spell R-E-D. He learns spanish words for days of the week & months of the year. I love how he writes his name. Sometimes he thinks it’s spelled T-R-U-M-Q-N because of how he writes his A. Knowing how much he dislikes coloring, […]

Family History, I am doing it!

Yesterday I decided to search familysearch.org for any temple work to be done on my family line. Much more productive than facebook or reading the news while feeding Scotland. Hannah came home from school and I taught her how to search. She has her own account so she was able to find names to do […]

ART

I am so grateful that the schools still have ART & PE. I hope they stay forever! These art projects came home with Hannah. I’m not sure why art projects rarely make it home with the boys.

The sad, sad case of the Fractured Clavicle

Saturday afternoon. Abe was helping with Scotland and picked him up off the changing table. While arranging him in his arms, Abe’s hand must have slipped and Mr. Scotty fell about 3 feet to the floor. Way too sad! I’m afraid I hollered a bit too much at Hannah and Abe who were in the […]

“The best way to spend a birthday!”

A few weeks ago, Jimmy was researching his Grandmother’s Biological line (vs the line she was adopted into). He connected several names and was able to reserve the names to do temple work. It was a mother and her children. So neat, especially considering it is within 4 generations for him. Hannah was looking forward […]
