Life is crazy. Of course. Whose life isn't. We are having "home ec" this week. Canning, sewing, refinishing our kitchen table and more. So traditional school work has been set aside. Which is nice because the weather is GORGEOUS!!! 70 in the day and high 30's and night. PERFECT. The Red leaves of Fall are showing up all over town. We picked apples for Family Home Evening at the Coffelts. THe kids and the adults had a great time, and we have been making apple butter today. YUM! Tonight I will can it and the Apple Jelly. TASTY. Tomorrow, Arina is going to help me jump start my table redo. Awesome, because it is looking pretty sad. I will be glad for our routine again though.
This morning was precious. David loves to come snuggle in my bed with me in the mornings. He brought his stuffed puppy dog, climbed in bed and was ready to "feel the baby." One of my favorite things right now. (Rachel had already come in and had her turn! Once the baby was done moving and shaking it was time for morning prayers. David wanted to stay and listen. :) So as I was praying for each individual child, quiet promptings from David kept coming, "and me mom." "Don't forget David." Ha ha. He was so sweet. Hard to be the last one in line waiting for your turn for mention in the prayer. I loved it.
