the little things

Days can be a little monotonous at home sometimes, but then a little moment will happen and it will make you be so grateful for right where you are.

This little one loves to flip through his books and "read them". video below

They really do have a special bond already and love each other.  Of course they are boys, and they play rough already…what do you expect? But their laughter together really makes me smile. video below

We went to a craft show this weekend in Waco. My friend Margaret made these little critters.

We love our little fox and reindeer.

After that we went by the boot store and got Owen a new pair of boots. He is such a big kid now. He and his daddy were on their way to see a Sunday afternoon movie.

And this sweet one, turned 10 months old today. I can not believe how quickly he is growing up and will be one year old before we know it. 

I think of things all day long I want to blog about and record, but they often don't get translated on here. There is not enough time in my day. Life is busy and full all the while being slow and unfulfilled somedays. I don't really know how to explain that unless you have lived it. 

But it is the little things, that bring joy. God is continuing to teach me in this season of life. Just because we are in the 3rd year of residency doesn't mean we have everything figured out. Life brings changes. Community changes, friends move, new friends are made, God speaks boldly in ways you may not have expected. But that is life right? Constantly reevaluating, moving forward and trying to do the best you can that day.
