Caleb

Out of the blue, Caleb asked me what a honeymoon* is like. After explaining how awesome it will be because he will have an amazing wife. He asked, "better than Nerf guns raining from the sky??" I said, "Yes! Even better." To which he replied under his breath, "I doubt it." *when asked how he knew what a honeymoon is, he said "I've known about it since my childhood." - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

Bedtime Routine

I am not sure if I have blogged about this before, but I just want to remember what bedtime was like at this stage. From youngest to oldest..... Levi:  He goes to sleep about 8 pm.  After his bath, he gets a new diaper and pj's.  We all say goodnight to him.  I take him to his room, snuggle him for a few minutes while I pray for him.  I lay him down (nothing in his bed; no pacifier or anything).  He flops to his belly and goes to sleep pretty fast.  He usually sleeps 11-12 hours. Luke:  Luke gets in bed about 8:15.  If he napped that day, he's up forever.  If he did not nap, he will fall asleep within 30 minutes.  When I lay with him, we have the exact same conversation every night: Luke: "Tell me story when you were a kid." (He got this from Caleb) (So I do) Luke: "Ask me my day." Me: "How was your day?  What was the best part of your day?" He answers. Luke (rolls over so I will scratch his back): "Sing 'I Love, I Love'&qu

What I Am Not

My friend and I had a conversation today about how Facebook should be called FaceBrag. Because it's where we all brag about how awesome our lives are.  And while we were poking fun at it, I actually enjoy that it's a place of positivity for the most part (and believe me, I am the worst offender....I love my family and my life).  But we also agreed that friends in real life are where you are real, honest, and open about life. My close friends know the very ugly parts of me, but I would venture to say they also get the best of me.  I know their shortcomings, too, but I also know their passions, hopes, and dreams.  I hope that everyone has their best girlfriends to do life with.  (And if you don't, as I once did not, I would encourage you to pray for God to bring you a close group of friends). Anyway, in good fun, I thought I would give you a glimpse into my life of what I am NOT.  (Sidenote: my belief in life is that you should maximize your strengths and do really well w
