Biggest Need

MONEY

It's not glamorous. It's not pretty. It's not fun. It's not creative. It's not ingenious. It's not smart. It's not comical.

It is endearing. It is powerful. It is helpful. It is necessary. It is provision. It is humbling. It is impactful. It is peace-providing.

A Generous Gentleman

As dinner was wrapping up, this little dude went person to person asking "you wan some more [chips]?" I said "no thank you, I'm all done." He then went over to Sawyer and asked "you wan some more, Sawyer?" Sawyer said "yes, please." Dempsey grabbed two chips and put them on Sawyer's plate. He went on to encourage Sawyer to "dip in walkamolee (guacamole)".

Precious glimpse and reminder that he CAN be a gentleman.

Gone Missing

Things that have gone missing around here:

1/2 measuring cup
At least 3 spoons
About 2 forks
Unknown number of Take n Toss cup/ lid sets
3-4 plastic children's bowls

This is a likely occurence when you trust your toddler to put his place settings/ dishes in the "sink" and he mistakes that for the trash.

We caught on and are more diligent to check the trash or listen for his deposits into the sink.

Gus Gus

This is his "watching Gus Gus" face. With all the immitations of Gus Gus happening recently I knew it wouldn't be long until he asked to watch Cinderella.

"Bof of you"

In the car, on their phones, waiting for Daddy to get done with his dr appointment, I hear "I love bof of you" from Dempsey.

Sawyer repeats the sentiment.

Dempsey repeats.

This repeats a few times amid some giggles.

I love these moments!

Sleepy Head

In recent months Dempsey has been falling asleep out in the living room while watching some animated movie. This requires him to be transported to his bed.

I love watching Jake carry our sleeping baby (3 year old) off to bed.

Tonight we picked up where we left off with Aristocats. Ten, maybe fifteen minutes in Dempsey was out. Cute boy in his Thomas the Train jammies laying with his blanket on the couch next to big brother. Precious.
