Beast glue

Jude calls Elmer's glue "beast glue." Me: "Why is it beast glue?"  He said "because there's a beast on it." (Referring to the picture above the word "Elmer's," which looks like a pig with horns to me!
LOL... just little things to keep me smiling during all the chaos and tantrums.

Music time

I usually practice guitar while Tristan Arrow naps and the twins have room time. This was on a weekend when Chris was around. Hope and pray he continues to have interest in learning an instrument.

Workin with intensity

This weekend's project was not planned; Chris tried to dig out some clover weeds in the backyard and discovered tons of rocks just under the surface. He quickly got all three children involved in the task. We were happily surprised at the intensity they put into the job! All three grabbed shovels and dug up the rocks and scooped them into contractor bags for almost two hours. Tristan has shown this willingness to hang with daddy for hours while painting fence posts and other jobs, but this time Petra and Jude totally dug in also.
