Things We Enjoy . . .
Japheth and Jeremiah have been spending lots of spare time building with K-nex . . . Here’s Jeremiahs helicopter.
Lynne’s delighted that I’m actually letting her play way on the piano!
These three just love their little tea table.
. . . hanging up laundry (this didn’t last long we got tired of walking around it, but someday I long for some lower clothesline in our basement . . . even I have to stand on my tip- toes to reach the highest parts)
Cut, color and paste . . . that’s always fun . . .
or doing beads . . . and begging Mama to iron “right now” and decorate the fridge . . .
And Japheth’s always in the fray . . . tug, tickle and tussle . . .
. . . Until someone calls for quiet time (hmm, I wonder who would do such a thing as that!?!)
And then the most coveted spot – Papa’s lap . . .
I get lots of love around here . . .
And a bit of time to learn something new . . . Knitting . . .
But some of the best fun of all is doing things together . . .
Like this game . . . put your bunny in the middle . . . Someone rolls the dice and hold the pan and if the dice add up to seven (or for younger ones we just did one dice and picked the nmber three), then . . .
Wham!!! Ya better watch out and not let your bunny get caught! Yank that string for all your worth . . .

Looks a lot like our house. What are you knitting? I guess a hat. I’ve knit a few scarves, but need to graduate to something new here shortly.

How wonderful seeing your children and their daddy spending family time together. Those are the moments when the children will capture the fondest of memories just like the camera captures an image. A wonderful heart legacy to carry throughout their lives.

I know this comment is a bit late but…
I LOVED the photos of your family:) Seeing them made me smile and want to cry too–out of joy that God has blessed you so tremendously!!! Children and grandchildren are such a blessing!
Many blessings, A
PS: I love the title of your website too–reminds me that the God who clothes the ‘lilies of the field’ (and daisies too), watches and takes care of us!
