The girls watched a storm roll in last night for about 30 minutes on the swing. And they chatted about "stuff". So sweet. I snuck out to get a picture and then let them chit-chat away. This is the first house we have lived in with a big front porch, and I have to say I am hooked. Love the look of it, but also love the memories that will be tied to this swing as we spend the summer evenings (and days!) swinging on it. So far my only big memory of it is sitting on it for three hours with Jack and Maddie after we locked ourselves out of the house last month...and daddy had to drive ALL the way home from work to let us in. Yes, I felt really good about that one. But, it turned into a fun afternoon with daddy and ice cream. How can you not love that?!?! We are off to Chicago this weekend. Cousin Amanda's graduation party on Saturday and then Chicago on Sunday. Field Museum and Garrett's Popcorn for sure....the rest we are playing by ear. I'm sure daddy will want some form of pizza while we are there. :)
Mom of three super fun and super cool children (Caleb, Grace, Madeline) and wife to one super cool dude - Andrew. Just living life and trying to do the best we can to mold these little sprouts into who God designed them to be. And trying to be "IN" the moments with them rather than looking back and wishing we had spent more time together as a family. And...to be content. Content with where I am in life as a wife and mom. Content with the circumstances God brings into our lives. Life moves by at warp speed, and I want to be present for it. (Jer. 29:11)
