Things I Love About Being Family Of 4

1.  A gallon of milk NEVER goes bad anymore before we can finish it
2.  A whole box of spaghetti doesn't produce days and days of leftovers- sometimes, not even one!


3.  A misheard/"missung" song lyric can bring uproarious giggles for days to come


4.  Quiet is so strange now.


5.  Teachable moments happen every day


6.  There's always someone to talk to


7.  On rare occasions, we get to have "Pajama Saturday" where we have nothing to do but stay home and spend time with each other.  Today was one of those days- the first one, I think, since FALL!
It's been awesome, and helps the batteries recharge for the busy week that will start tomorrow!

DNA

I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while.  There seems to be very little computer time these days.  Instead, my time is spent picking up legos and puzzle pieces, washing clothes, playing in the yard, trying new recipes, and experiencing our city through the eyes of our children.  I have to say, I do not miss "my computer time" one little bit.  

As Randy and I watch our children grow, we continue to get to know them even better.  There are times that we just have to look at one another and laugh.  Tonight I looked at Randy as we were sitting in the rocking chairs on the porch finishing our iced tea from supper, and watching our children play.  I commented that it was amazing to me that although  we had absolutely nothing to do with their conception, it seems at times that they sure do have our DNA running through them.  I caught myself saying, "She's YOUR daughter", when K did something really silly that Randy would have done.  Other times, I see myself in each of them.  
How great is our God, that he would knit us together in so tight a weave.  
Praise Be To Jesus!
