feelin’ the holiday LOVE
Truman joined me in bed this morning – which meant that he stepped on my back to climb over me to snuggle. So-long sleep. I woke and headed downstairs to find this once-in-a-lifetime delightful scene:
Really? How sweet is that?! … and then my heart melted.
All was well in my mothering heart.
and along came tru… happy and holding still for a moment…

he brought along his tennis ball. see how sneaky that kid is. he’s looking at the book and hitting max in the face with the ball at the same time.

oh children… how i love thee!
p.s. I also loved you so much by the end of the day that I wanted to send you off to your comfy cozy beds by 5:30 so you could all get your happy sleep. That was probably due to the fact that dad was under the weather and resting in bed and I was tired from lack of sleep and loads of meetings.
A thought shared in church that applies to my life right now…
“Too often we pray to have patience, but we want it right now!” Robert D. Hales
Anyhoo… love those kids and love these delightful loving moments, even if they only last a moment or two.


Loving those kids all reading together! In their cute Santa hats! Piling in together like that, the bonking incidents are bound to happen. Such darling photos out of the deal!
This is the sweetest thing ever! :] I LOVE the holidays!
I love those pictures. You should make one your Christmas card. :)
