I told the kids that we would start school today. We studied math and played with bubbles. It was a fun first day of school. 🙂
We plan to get some Dawn or Joy dishsoap soon and make home made bubbles. Then we will compare what is best, store bought or home made.
Only a Dad
Edgar A. Guest (1916)
Only a dad but he gives his all,
To smooth the way for his children small,
Doing with courage stern and grim
The deeds that his father did for him.
This is the line that for him I pen:
Only a dad, but the best of men.
Thank you God for such a wonderful Daddy to my kids!
It has been very hot the last few days. Andrea decided that Megan needed to put on her bathing suit and learn how to play in the sprinkler. Megan enjoyed it as long as someone was holding her. If the sprinkler was on while she sat in the grass, she cried.
Today is Audrey’s Birthday Eve. She and Andrea dressed up as beautiful princesses and then picked some flowers for the dinner table.
I loved watching the cars go by as they chose their flowers. Most of the men just drove by. The women would watch the girls for a little bit with huge grins on their faces.
I pray that all my princesses grow up knowing how special and beautiful they are. I pray that they will learn to know their heavenly father in a deep way that shines through everything they do. And I pray that their lives will draw many to our Awesome Father God.
