Mr. Sympathetic

Caleb is by far our most sensitive and gentle child.  He has such a big heart and gets upset so easily when he gets a timeout or his feelings get hurt.  However, being so sensitive also makes him so sympathetic when others are hurt, especially Elyse or Kallen. 

A few nights back Elyse has dancing in the kitchen, slipped, smacked her head into the corner of the counter and got a humongous bump.  Caleb was right there to make sure she was okay and iced her until she was good to go.  Such a sweet and thoughtful boy!

Bottom, Left, Center

On Saturday, Kallen's first tooth came in.  I know it's hard to see in the picture, but his first tooth is his left central incisor.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is a holiday that tends to be focused on either football, shopping the next day (or this year at 9 PM) and/or food, instead of thanks. As I am typing that thought, I realized there is so many things I am thankful for, these are just a few...
  • Jesus Christ who loves me and sacrificed His life for my sins
  • An amazing, patient, leading and handsome husband that I don't ever want to be apart from
  • Three precious children that I love unconditionally
  • A supportive and loving family that's there whenever needed
  • Friends that I consider family
  • Laughter, something I just don't do enough of

Hope you all take a moment today to celebrate and appreciate all you are blessed with.

Wishing you all a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Quiet Activity

Want a quiet activity that your children will do for quite sometime and enjoy?
 
Put a VeggieTales CD in a player, give them some headphones and sit back to watch your children smile and try to sing along.
