Today was the day – the driving test we have all been waiting for!
And she did it! She passed with flying colors!!
(the only bitter part of the day was finding out how much our auto insurance just went up!)
Joy celebrated with a tea party (yay for Spring!)
With Jessi working full time, the days she has off are not always on the weekend. This Thursday happened to be one of the those glorious days she had off. And as it turned out, we weren’t needed to watch Ellie and Bennett, so I made sure Jessi and Sammi enjoyed their “Saturday.” We grabbed some lunch and headed to a park. It was a very blustery day, so Sammi grabbed a kite. What a peaceful day!
The bliss in watching Sammi fly her kite! She was having so much fun, such pure, unadulterated joy. Jessi and I just sat and watched her. We noticed that small grove of trees at the end of the field. I figured there had to be some water there! (It was calling to me!)And I was right!
Such a fun “Saturday!”
Our weather in Kentucky has been crazy! But today was beautiful!
Ni xiang zai waimian wan ma? (Would you like to play outside?) I didn’t have to ask twice!
Love the Spring!!
Gary, Sandi, Jason and I went to see Les Miserables last night. Once I allowed myself to forgive them for leaving out so much of the book, it was really good! The sets blew me away!Fantine truly had the voice of an angel. My favorite character is still the Bishop. Truly a great message!
So grateful we still have babsitters (not too much longer : ( )
We drove to North Carolina to attend our cousin’s baptism. I took Joy and Bella with me. I want them to learn more and more about Jesus and baptism, so when they are ready, they too can be baptized.
We were on a trip – which to Joy means lots of McDonald’s - happy day!
We made it to NC!
Cause I thought it was pretty!
I was happy to see my parents and my sister and her family.
We completed this puzzle – that little girl there is a puzzle champ!
Joy and her cousin Elizabeth
Aunt Kathie with Joy and Bella
Grandpa and Grandma with Joy and Bella
Driving home – more McDonald’s, of course!
While it was nice to get away and see family, I missed my Kai Kai. And evidently, he missed me too. Sunday night, he feel asleep holding my arm and I heard him say Mama a couple of times. Sweet boy!
