Art At It's Finest

We attempted some egg decorating this year.

Getting instructions from Dad.

Nana sent them some stickers and plastic eggs to decorate. They had a lot of fun coming up with funny faces.

As you can see, they're a little confused as to where a bow tie goes.

Someone got a little sleepy.

3 Months

The smirk says it all...pretty sure I'm going to have another mischievous little booger. 

3 months and growing like a weed! He's trying to pull himself up and wants to be where all the action is. He coos and grins a lot, except when I get out my camera. HA! He is a good baby, but wants fed on time!

Easter Finery

It took a zillion several attempts to get a semi-decent picture. Some of the attempts were my fault, like checking to make sure batteries weren't about to die and then of course, there's kiddos involved. However, we finally got one to put in the scrapbook.

We had a blessed Easter Sunday with several family members joining their loved ones for morning service. It was encouraging and we're looking forward to what God has in store for our church.

Big Shot

He thinks he's big stuff!

Siblings

I like the idea that some are doing in taking a picture of their kiddos every Sunday. After all, they are clean, dressed, and have their hair combed. However, due to the reasons listed above, I am certain it will not happen for this family every Sunday. HA! We do well to get there on time some weeks.

Let Them Be Little

Where there is dirt, boys my children will play.

They had a good time...and, hey, it'll wash.

 

These years are so quickly passing by and I want to treasure every moment...even the muddy ones. I was reminded of a song I heard a long time ago:

"Let Them Be Little"

[Originally written and sung by Billy Dean]

I can remember when you fit in the palm of my hand
Felt so good in it, no bigger than a minute
How it amazes me, you're changing with every blink
Faster than a flower blooms they grow up all too soon

So let them be little 'cause they're only that way for a while
Give them hope, give them praise, give them love every day
Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle
Oh just let them be little

I've never felt so much in one little tender touch
I live for those kisses, prayers and your wishes
Now that you're teaching me things only a child can see
Every night while we're on our knees all I ask is please

Let them be little 'cause they're only that way for a while
Give them hope, give them praise, give them love every day
Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle
Oh just let them be little

So innocent, a precious soul, you turn around
It's time to let them go

So let them be little 'cause they're only that way for a while
Give them hope, give them praise, give them love every day
Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle
Oh just let them be little

Let them be little
