I love being home! I just overheard a conversation between Parker and Reese. The were playing with Kinex (a building toy, kinda like legos) they were creating something together. I heard Reese saying a catechism answer, "Chosen men who wrote by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit" The question is Who wrote the Bible? He then asked Parker "who were the chosen men?" Parker said, "The men who wrote the Bible" and they proceeded to have a conversation about who wrote the Bible. I was grining from ear to ear. My 11 yr old and 7 yr old were bonding with each other while playing and discussing theology!!! What a wonderful blessing that they have each other and are together all day to be able to be influenced by one another. We were all outside this morning, I was watering new grass that Patrick planted and the kids were riding bikes and we were watching a beautiful display of hotair balloons going directing over our house. They were close enough we could talk to them. The sky was covered with all different colors and shapes. It was breathtaking! While outside Gabriel hurt his bid toe and said, "Ouch! I hurt my toe thumb!" A little while later Miles said, "Ouch! A skeeter got me" (mosquito) I chuckled and thanked the Lord for the opportunity to be home with our children to be able to share our lives together day in and day out. Even in the simple things! I am off to go do some baking w/ Mary Paige she has been wanting to create a huge chocolate chip cookie! I love my "job"!
