These two melted my momma heart in to a pile of mush more than once today. Ty spent a good portion of the day soaking Jonah up as he’s heading out of town tomorrow until August. He secured a leadership position at the christian camp he attending last year that focuses on leading young men and teenagers in to Christlike manhood. I’m so excited for him and this opportunity. We are all going to miss him like crazy.
This week was about one of our favorite things: camping! Actually, it was more like 2 weeks since we ventured out for some real life experiences in a cabin on the Frio River. We always have a blast there and I took over 1,000 photos with my real camera (coming soon). Instead of our usual sensory bin, we opted this week to do camping scenes that we made out of paper and other manipulatives. I love that as the week went on they grew and changed and were moved all around. Taryn and Jude also painted story stones. You can see a video of Taryn telling part of her story […]
Space week was a blast but sort of a repeat for us as we spent several months studying space last school year. We added in some fun preschool stuff for Jonah to spice it up a bit. He really loved the big planet space magnets, those were a hit!

We had a wonderful week celebrating our Lord’s resurrection. The kids really loved the cross paintings and the resurrection eggs (that I found on sale, score!). We hosted an Easter egg hunt with friends that was allergy friendly and had a blast, so it was a busy week.

I’m quite certain this post will embarrass him, but I’m going to take a few moments to love on him anyway. There was a time 6 or so years ago that I started to feel more private about sharing his day to day stories. Teenagers need that trust that everything they say and do won’t be put out for the public consumption. So I opted to filter a bit and not share as much as I do about the little kids. Part of me misses the documentation of his every day, but I know that our relationship is better because we have that trust between us. Today though, I’m feeling a bit mushy and emotional, because my first baby turned […]
