right now, I am...
thankful:: for the close friends I have that can just call and say they are coming for a visit... for the week.
hearing:: the short silence that is nap time in a house full of kids.
excited:: to take all the kids out for a movie adventure.
full:: from breakfast that was hours ago, but full of fresh belgian waffles and breakfast casserole.
wondering:: how it got to be late afternoon before I posted today?
laughing:: constantly from all the silly games, conversations, sing-songs and phrases coming from all the little people around here.
loving:: the way this rat-pack loves each other.
dancing:: after bath times to the sweet tunes of "The Wheels on the Bus" and "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes."
laundering:: piles of towels, sheets, and clothing that comes from a household that doubled in size over the weekend.
anticipating:: the rest of the week being just as lovely and full as the beginning.
asking:: what are you all up to today?
wishing:: you all a fulfilling day, rain or shine (ours, unfortunately, is drenched in rain).
totally loving those faces and smiles...and the love! yeah!

ReplyDeleteThese are some truly great photographs. You've captured the moments so well. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteFriends are definitely a lovely addition to life. My friend went with me to the grocery today since the babies and I are all sick. It made the trip completely bareable and a bit enjoyable. We have the best of both worlds with micro bursts, clouds, sunny, warm and interesting all day with the weather!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the photos.
I love that in the last shot there is reading in the BATH! That is awesome! :)
ReplyDeleteOH how gorgeous. Who are all these sweet looking kids?
ReplyDeleteYou are a better person than I am. I would have listed SILENCE twice ;). I am really enjoying that as my kids get older they are beginning to carry on conversations about life with their friends. And here I thought I knew all of my children's thoughts!
ReplyDeleteWow, you did it. You caught the beauty of these kids. Awesome. I liked seeing my boy too. :)
