A Gentle Reminder for My Kiddos


I just finished this frame for the kids' bathroom. It says, "We are brothers and sisters, and we are best friends!" Thanks Traci, for the phrase and the reminder. We've had a bit of brother/sister competitiveness around here. I know it is normal, but I so want them to grow up being best friends.

Finally!

Sorry it has been forever.  I have tons to post about the summer, but for now I'll start with Jack's birthday. He turned seven yesterday!  He was beyond thrilled to open his first box of "real" legos. He just yelled, "Finally!"  We made the kids wait until now because of Henry and Bridget being so young.  Today it was storming and cold all day!  What a perfect day for his first big project!  I was his assistant and helped him find the pieces.  




Great job Jack!  Happy Birthday!
