You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance.


Today has been a day from Hades...up until now, because it is nap time and my babies are sleeping! YAY! But I have to say, through all the screaming and whining I find laughter. This afternoon I think Emily and Mom both needed some fresh air so we set out to mow the back yard. There were so many stinkin' bugs though!! But we accomplished the task and came in for lunch. It didn't take long before I found Emily upstairs in her highchair asleep. She is my sweet little princess...most of the time. And luckily...even though my swing is out of batteries Caleb is asleep as well. That is after several minutes of me rocking it by hand. Oh how we are so spoiled with new technology!

Jess--you are so patient and kind! I'm so glad you aren't moving, there is still way too much that I need to learn from you (like how to be patient and kind)--plus we need to party more.
