You may be wondering why I chose this picture. But if you look closely you can see James’ little finger pointing at Haleigh. This just makes me giggle. I’m sure he was giving her the “what for!” He will jibber jabber up a storm sometimes and only he knows what he says! But when he has that finger up, you it’s important! What’s even funnier to me is that “whatever” look on Haleigh’s face! We spent some time in the yard this evening in between rain showers. Haleigh is working on pumping her legs as you can see in the pictures. James is now climbing up the playset to go down the slide…he has NO fear! Chris also bought the kids some rocket balloons!! What fun! They kids loved them as you can see. It seems that I am beginning to write an awful lot in these blog posts. Sometimes I wonder if what I write has any meaning?! I was thinking that I need to make sure I start to write down moments I don’t want to forget or things the kids may say that I don’t want to forget. I figured this would be as good a place to do it as any..seeing as how I do this at the end of the day anyway and everything is fresh in my brain. Sooo…today I don’t want to forget sweet Jamesy at the table (he is now sitting at the table with us for dinner in his booster seat). We always have a prayer during mealtime and tonight, we started saying our prayer and I didn’t reach over to hold James’ hand which is something we typically do. Well, he doesn’t miss a beat! He gently reached over and grabbed my hand. At first I didn’t know what he was doing and then it hit me that he was holding hands to pray. I think we sometimes forget that their little minds are bigger than we think. i just thought this was so sweet…I’m such a sap that it even brought tears to my eye. Should I be admitting this? I just love moments like this that melt my heart!

I think putting your thoughts down is just beautiful. And for us, the people that love you and your family it makes us smile and laugh in the sharing of your memories.
The days go by so fast and kids grow up in a heartbeat and to keep these everyday memories is just beautiful. Because we always tend to forget the little things. We should always remember life's simple pleasures. God is Good!
