Images that make my heart SING!

 Maybe it is because I have a degree in Recreational Management or maybe it is the reason I did study recreation, but nothing makes my heart sing like watching kids creating...I sincerely love it.

 I adore the days when we have the time to paint, draw, dress up, color on the driveway, play Legos etc.  At any rate enjoy these photos from the past two weeks. 

 I feel happier just looking at them again. 

 A person done by Gracie. For some reason it doesn't want to rotate, but I am amazed that she is drawing recognizable images already.  She could spend hours drawing or painting.  I love it. 

 I drew the hearts and then Gracie filled them in (actually, Owen may have done a few of the hearts on that day.  Can't remember).  She loves doing that.

 Davis went to a Zorro birthday party and spent several days obsessed with Zorro!

 It doesn't matter if the paint is on paper or our face...we love it!

Had to throw this one in...love the giggle smiles...

Lego Mania Continues...

 

 This is what Gracie was doing this morning when she was supposed to be getting dressed for church...

 Can I see my picture?

 Again this morning...Owen was working on a project, but everyone had to get in on the action...

May they always find joy in Creativity!

This is what we do when we're sick...and when we're not.

I know I mentioned this earlier, but our family was sick for a couple of weeks.  The kids were really resilient to it actually.  Jed and I on the other hand were both wiped out.  I didn't even leave the house for a week.  Thankfully Jed functioned much better than I did.  On the one hand it was refreshing not to have to go anywhere, but on the other hand...

It is all kind of a blur, but while we were down we read, slept, caught up on some T.V., and did this puzzle...again (Jed and I put it together the week before on our weekend away--more on that later).  This time we did it at night with the boys.  I don't know why we don't take the time to do puzzles more often.  It was a hoot!

Thank you to all of my friends who carted my kids around and brought my family food. We wouldn't have made it without you!
