Thank you Brooke

Brooke made lunch, unloaded the dishwasher,  worked on about five loads of laundry, and brought the trash cans from the street.  I was so, so thankful.  I was especially impressed because I hadn’t asked her to do these things.

March 4th!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The day finally came.  It’s March forph (is more like Luke says it).  He got to take off the last paper chain.

The kids usually get to make a birthday breakfast request.  Luke requested biscuits.  He was opening some cards that had already come in the mail.

Then he helped make his birthday cake.  It was yellow cake with chocolate icing.

Then Luke finally got to open his presents!  I think this was his favorite part of the party.

Now since his party he’s been asking for things for his next birthday.  Smile

Everyday

Just a typical day at home doing school.  The house starts off clean in the morning and we end the day with things put away.  It gets a little crazy in between.

A Special Date

Brooke and Joshua went to Olive Garden one evening for dinner.  It was a very sweet date.

Luke’s Birthday Chain

Luke was really excited about his 4th birthday this year.  About 18 days before his birthday came he asked me several times if it was about his birthday.  I thought it was going to seem like forever to him until his birthday came.  It might also seem like forever to me too if I continued to answer that same sweet little question several times a day for the next 18 days.  So we decided to make a birthday chain.  Each morning at breakfast time he took off one paper chain.  I think it really helped him because then he could see how many more days until his birthday.
