A few from this week.....

I was putting Abbie to bed the other night, and I have been trying to get her to close her eyes to pray. So I reminded her, started praying and then I started hearing her talk. I opened my eyes just a bit and she was covering her turtles eyes, saying shhh, eyes closed. It was so cute!!

Noah was talking about grandma's kittens today, and he was telling me about Micah's cat who he named Rose, but Kiersten named Kallie. I told him that the cat was dead, so it didn't matter anymore. To which he responds, no one gets her now.....(long pause) except for God. So cute, and innocent!!

Micah's Wipe Out

We had our first snow last Friday, Dec. 9. The little ones and I played in the snow for a good part of the morning, it was a lot of fun. After school Micah wanted to go sledding on the little hill next to our house. Both Noah and Abbie were sleeping, so I told him to go ahead. After about 20 minutes, Micah came in and his face was a mess! He has gone down the hill on his knees, and hit a rock on the way down, and it threw him from his sled and into the small drain pond that is at the bottom of the hill. Apparently he went in head first! He was full of mud and his hat, gloves and coat were soaked. I couldn't help but laugh and he took it like a trooper! Jeremy has started calling him crash and burn....a name he is not too fond of. :) He ended up with a pretty good "road rash" on his chin, he will have lots of questions at school.

Micah's Dream

Micah woke up yesterday and said he slept so good, because he had two great dreams. He could only remember one though. Here it is:

Me, Grandpa, Joel and Noah were cutting wood (something they have never done). Then a big buck came up to us. Joel told me to hold it's tail while he went and got his bow. So I did and then Joel got the deer.

It was a great dream mom!!
