This morning the kids made some Mother’s Day Cards for Naomi.
Adelaine’s card features her and mommy in the ’80s. They both have “poofy” shoulders.
Happy Mother’s Day to my wonderful wife and mother of our three munchkins who love their mother lots and lots!
Under Naomi’s tutelage, Ellie’s reading abilities have really grown in the last couple months. She now reads just about anything she finds.. and cereal boxes are suddenly a treasure trove of information! She even surprised me one morning by reading an upside down newspaper headline, which then forced me to explain a crime that it was about. Surprising for both of us perhaps.
We keep telling her that learning to read opens the door for her to learn just about anything, and she is trying! She also enjoys reading (perhaps it is showing off) to her sister…
and her brother while he.. uh. nevermind.
because, really, what can you say?
The Queen of Mop upon Her Pillow Throne
Sir Ethor attempts a bloodless (hopefully) coup.
The Royal Guard try a valiant tickle attack to remove him.
When that fails, the Queen of Mop creates a new Royal Throne with pillows from the Royal Bed.
A very Happy Birthday to our wonderful little girly girl, Adelaine!
Five years ago today, a long and difficult pregnancy came to an end and we welcomed our little miracle girl, Adelaine, into our arms. She is such a bright light in our lives and we can’t imagine our family without her. We’re so glad the Lord sustained her life and let us enjoy her sweetness for a while here on earth. We love you, little girl!!
Adelaine we love you!
