Jesus loves me

Thomas blessed my heart. We were blessing the meal and I could hear the kids upstairs playing. Thomas started singing Jesus loves me 3 times during the prayer. How wonderful to hear my son and his great great uncle blessing gods heart at the same time!

Joanna's first day of second grade

Happy 41 to Chris

Kids play Mario on the Wii for the first time!

Joanna cooks!

Joanna cooked pasta by herself, with my supervision, while I made a homemade marinara sauce from Jason's tomatoes. I was peeling and de-seeding tomatoes. She was so proud. Thomas was happy to eat and they both wanted seconds so she then made another batch!
