Quote of the Week (or month...or year)!

Said by Leah over a bowl of chocolate ice-cream:
"Mom, I'm so glad we're a God-full family. That's a family that has lots of God in it. And he's the all-Father of all fathers."

She melts my heart with her faith and love of God.

And since I've been really bad at posting I'm just going to throw in a pic of my little girl.

"Flat Jonathan" Project

An old friend of ours from TN, Jonathan, invited us to join in his class project. His class was asking family and friends throughout the country to bring their "flat friends" on adventures (an adaptation of the "Flat Stanley" project based on the book of the same name by Jeff Brown). Jonathan mailed his "Flat Jonathan" to us so that we could bring him along on some of our adventures in Massachusetts. Ben and Leah loved bringing him along and trying to involve "Jonathan" in our daily activities. They even made up a little story to share with Jonathan's class. Here are some of the pictures of our adventures.Bedtime Stories
