Nothing like a little hot chocolate on a cold rainy day.

SNOW!!!

It's snowing!





And it's sticking!





Let's make snowflakes.





Now let's go play!




























And in case the snow melts off tonight, we have snowballs in the freezer for later.

Sweet birthday surprise

I got home from church Sunday and Serif couldn't wait to show me something. (He and Jeff went to Target after 2nd service to get a few things.) He takes me to the kitchen and hands me a gift bag and asks me to open it. Inside were 4 sheets of paper with special words and art by Serif plus a very special ornament that he personally hand picked just for me for my birthday.

Tonight's quote

There are pink clouds in the dusk sky tonight.

"I think that's where God is. He's where the light is and he's showing us light because it 's pretty."

Today's conversation

Serif: When is God going to come down from outer space?

Me: Well nobody knows but God. One day he will and he'll take us all back to heaven with him. It's going to be awesome!

Serif: Well, I'm going to ask him tonight. I'm going to ask him in the living room at the camp out.

(He's camping out with Daddy in the living room tonight.)

Cool Moments

We were getting of the Shelby exit tonight, heading home, when Serif looked over at the bursting yellow sun through the clouds. (Photos don't do it justice.). He asked me, "Is God in that big yellow light in the sky?"

Yes! Yes He is!

Wow. Cool moments.

Mud Pie Soup

It was the perfect day for working outside today so we jumped at the chance to switch around a lot of our landscaping. Serif was a pretty good helper but was getting bored and kept wanting to go inside. He honestly doesn't get enough outside time so I was thinking about some suggestions for him.


I went inside and grabbed a couple of bowls, a pitcher and a couple of spoons and brought them out to him. I told him about when I was a kid and use to make mud pie or mud soup. I explained how to do it and he lit up. He thought it was so much fun and it kept him entertained for quite a while. It was so fun watching him enjoy it. He kept bringing me things, saying they were too pretty for his soup and wanted me to have them. I got a small pebble, a mushroom and a bright orange berry. :)


Jeff got the water hose out so we could water the plants. Serif wanted to help so Jeff showed him how to work the nozzle. He had more fun spraying the mud out of bowl. He just giggled and giggled. Then he started spraying the house and got so excited saying he was making a rainbow. I guess it was from the and of the sun. What a fun and tiring day.
