Me and LE

The books say it's too early for separation anxiety. I have a husband, two sets of grandparents, and multiple nursery workers who think otherwise.

Observing Lent

In the past I've seen blogs that talk about observing Lent with their family. I've been interested but not sure how to start or what to do even. Over at homeschoolfreebie.com they are offering a free e-book on celebrating Lent with your family - it's available for free today only. I'm off to go print out my book.

By the way today is Ash Wednesday, just in case you're as date clueless as I usually am.

3 more inches

This morning we woke up to about 3 more inches of snow. I pointed it out to Agent H this morning and he actually groaned and in all sincerity and with a disappointed face said "I was hoping we wouldn't get anymore." He's been asking for weeks now when summer will be here.

First tooth lost

We thought it was too early, I guess not! Agent H has lost his first tooth (soon followed by his second). The tooth fairy left a glittery note and two whole dollars under his pillow.

Deep thoughts from a 5 & 3 year old

Agent H has been on a deep thought roll:

"Even though the tree can't reach heaven, it can reach God cause He's everywhere." So true!

Here he is playing Legos and building a base for the good guys to be stationed out of, "Let's build a scanner at the entrance of the hide out. It will look at their hearts to tell if they are good or bad." I can think of a few folks I'd like to have walk through that scanner - did I just type that?

And my dear Ebug. After noticing a magnet on the fridge with a picture of a superwoman on it said "It's you mom!" I wish.

Snapshot of the Moment

I was in the closet about to scan for something to wear today. I leaned back out of the closet to see where everyone was at. Ebug is half laying/half sitting on the toilet potty training, LE Babe is strapped into his bouncy pulling up his pant legs and happy screeching, and Agent H is sitting on my bed building with Legos.

With LE Babe teething there has been very little sleep these days and I find myself singing to myself "This is the day the Lord has made and I will be glad in it" with the purpose to remind myself to do just that. Everyone is now screaming for MOOOOOOMMM! so my quick moment of gratitude and reflection on life is done for now. Life is happening.

LE Babe @ 6 months

In honor of his six month birth celebration, LE Babe rolled over twice from his back to his tummy. Such an accomplishment! He had been teetering on the edge (and maybe even made it once?) for a couple of weeks now but now he seems to be comfortable with his new trick and enjoying it.
