Just so I remember

Sunday Mornings.  Older ones getting ready for church.  Mommy gives little ones cereal before she gets them ready for church so they won't spill milk on their clothes.

Basket filled with all the things I need to teach my class ready to go on my desk.

Timothy looking to see if there are any treats in that basket. :)

A new week.  The Lord's Day.  Sunday is the best day!

Sweet Estrella.

Adorable Abraham.

Fun with friends

Each of these children growing up in a home where their parents know and love the Lord.

We're well into February and it's warm enough to walk around barefoot.  

Catching the morning light streaming through the window.

Writing letters to friends.

I love the look of concentration on his face.  

And the looks of happiness too.

And the look of satisfaction of a job well done.

New bread pans make such pretty loaves!

Mornings for study.

The new closet Daddy built.  Plans to put on finishing touches (trim/paint/doors) in the future, but for now the most important....soooo practical!!!

Afternoons to work.

And why are you so distraught, Samuel?

Is your blanket in the dryer?  :)

Christmas Caroler decorations down....

Heart Animal decorations up :)

Perfect for February! :)

Just some every day pictures

Daily life.  When I transfer pictures from our camera onto the computer, I always smile. 

I took these first three shots early one morning as the light was just shining through the family room window.  Since Daddy made the new closet, my little guys have taken great pride in getting up, getting dressed all by themselves (including combing their hair :) ), making their beds, doing their chores, and then having their Bible and prayer time.  They are big boys now.  They have their own closet just like their older brothers. They have their own Bible, too.

It doesn't matter that they can't really read the Bible yet.  They know lots of verses and stories and as they open up to a page, often with the Bible upside down, they are very serious.  Nehemiah helps Eliseo find the perfect place to read.  He helps him with everything because he's "a lot bigger" you know.  He's 5 and Eliseo's not quite 4.  He weighs 1 1/2 lbs more, too.  

Usually Nehemiah "reads" out loud and Eliseo listens. Then they always pray.  

So sweet.  So sincere.  Something I pray they will do for the rest of their lives.

Timothy, who was suppose to be doing his school work, took this picture last week.  Don't you love what you find on your camera sometimes? :)   An early morning visit from our neighbor across the street.  I hadn't had a chance to comb my hair, but she doesn't care.  

 Timothy had my camera Saturday morning, too.  They went out to share the gospel door to door.

 Like I said, the pictures I find on my camera :)  But I sort of think he's cute in a messy sort of way.

We make a lot of cookies around here.  

 And make lots of memories, too! :)
