--I love how Seth insists on holding my hand every time I go to bring Courtney downstairs for her nap or at bedtime. He always wants to pray with her at night.
--Lindsay's been baking up a storm. She made muffins by herself and was tickled pink that she didn't even drop any eggshells in the batter. Later she also made Kraft Dinner for lunch and then a pot of coffee for me. After all this frenzied kitchen activity, she settled down and did 2 days worth of LA and Math. Way to go Lindsay!!
--After 10 years, i finally have a puzzling table set up again where I can happily sit and do my big puzzles. We have enough space and children who know NOT to touch it.
--Pastor was back at the pulpit this morning after being away for 2 weeks due to church meetings and the like. We used his absence to train Courtney in church which involved a lot of wiggling, squirming, babbling etc. Needless to say, I'm a little starved to hear a sermon now.
--Courtney said her first sentence: "NO! NO! My book!" Yes, flattering isn't it. But she is such a little cutie.
--When Eric and Lindsay are memorizing their catechism, they are usually lying on the ground and doing some weird acrobatics involving legs in the air and that sort of thing. But the apple does not fall from the tree because I remember doing the exact same thing when I was younger. It really does help to memorize the tougher parts.
--This past week Isaiah really encouraged me--not just Monday, but continually throughout the week.
--I was VERY excited this past Saturday to finally discover a laundry detergent that cleans WELL, smells nice and is priced properly. It took me 10+ years to find this!!! So I bought a second jug to celebrate.
--Courtney sat through a whole worship service this morning!!!!! She didn't get taken out at all like the last 3 services.
--The moose are no longer visiting us. Instead we are seeing deer and elk with increasing regularity. I hope the thrill of seeing wildlife here never gets old.
There's so much I'd love to talk about and mention but a public forum such as this blog is not the place. So signing off until I have another block of time to do some writing.
