Family BarBQ

IT's warm enough today. I hear the hockey game in the background. Why is everyone so quiet? Did I hear OT?

verenike and cheese sticks

Nana is ready for a day of babysitting the grandgirls...Emmeline, Clairi and Emmanuelle. Got her ammunition which are the kids favorite foods ie. cheese sticks and homemeade perogies.

swimming cousins

3 little cousins went swimming this morning. Grandmas smiled as the little brown eyed girls held hands and walked to the pool. I am so blessed. My heart could have burst with pride.

OH NO!

My tulips are popping up. They must be feeling more optimistic about Spring than I am.

Dance show

Emmeline's ballet class did a show for parents and Nanas

Emmeline's visit

Nana and Emmeline had a great time today. WE (mostly Nana) took a nap... with the radio on and the jewellery box wound up and the bed full of dolls. Then we woke up and made brownies. A fun day.

Favorite pictures

I love the feel of bamboo and angora yarn. Soooo soft.

snack time fav.

Tea, I drink with jam and bread.

one for each girl

There has to be two of everything. Soon I'll need 3 chairs.

Oh Snow!

Yesterday was dry and safe to walk. Today is THIS.

puddles and magnets

I'm positive there is a magnetic attraction between a child's boots and a mud puddle.

Happy Birthday Mom, I sure miss you and I find myself doing things exactly like you did when you were my age. Hope I am as gracious as you were.

Sat in the sun with no jacket on.

Faith

Faith takes us where our senses cannot.

enraptured

For 30 minutes, I watched a 22 month old baby observing a lady bug making it's way around a coffee mug.

My Deal

Trying to make a deal with myself. 10 for an elph.

casserole

Family came for regular Sunday evening supper.

Emmanuelle

Emmanuelle started walking today.

cold things

After 3 days of fog, the sun is shining. Why did I win a Skor DQ blizzard on such a cold day?

He Loves Me

"Jesus wanted us to be very clear about who his Father is because we only grow in him to the degree that we trust his love for us."

He Loves Me

He Loves Me Learning to Live in the Father's Afection by Wayne Jacobsen.

"Moving from a performance-based religious ethic toward God to a relationship deeply rooted in the Father's affection is no small transition."

Songbirds

E. was singing "Away in a Manger" while working on her connect the dots workbook. Sitting beside her was C. who sang along. She knew all the words. She will sing if nobody is watching. So much like her MOM.

CONCERTO

Listened to glorious music on a warmer winter day.
