Communication glitch anyone?

Okay, Michael is really loving kindergarten. And he loves "teaching" his brothers what he learns. Today his class was going over nursery rhymes and Michael colored a page of Jack and Jill. All day he has been singing the Jack and Jill nursery rhyme. ALL DAY. Now, here comes the communication glitch. For some reason, Caleb has been hearing: "Jack and Jill went up to hell to catch on fire..." Now, I'm not sure how Caleb has been hearing this. I have been hearing the correct version ALL DAY. And now they are fighting over where Jack and Jill are going and what for. I think there has been a communication glitch...

This week is THE week

This week is THE week. A first for me. My oldest baby is starting school THIS week. He turns five THIS week. He was an incredibly awesome ring bearer in his uncle's wedding THIS week.

My second baby is turning three THIS week. He will begin to lose his older brother four hours a day starting THIS week. He will truly discover life as a big brother himself THIS week.

Our lives begin a new path THIS week. I want to protest. It's too soon! They're my babies! Their births are still fresh in my mind and my heart! I know they have to grow up, but do they have to do it THIS week?

July Mom of the Month

This is always so hard to choose. I know so many amazing moms. But I have to say, for July I am picking Abby Kennedy. She is the mother of three awesome boys--one entering preschool (Josiah), one entering 6th grade (Jesse)and one entering 8th grade (Zach).

Abby supports and encourages her boys in America's favorite past time--Zach was recently named Athlete of the Week, while training them up to be awesome men of God. Jesse and Zach are two of the best worshippers in youth group, stepping up and stepping out in their faith.

Abby is creative and generous. I have watched her use her time and talents repeatedly for the needs of the Church, without ever hearing a complaint. She is an inspiration of loving selflessly.
