The best and most beautiful things in the world can not be
seen or even touched, they must be felt within the heart. - Helen Keller

Zachary

Zachary came downstairs wearing a camo shirt and a different type of camouflage pants, looking super cute, of course. After Todd & I doted on how cute he looked, he smirked and said, "Guess what kind of undies I'm wearing?" and he pointed at the camo print with a giant smile.

He is so darn cute.

Funny girl

Allie is SUPER funny and inquisitive. Here are some recent funnies from her:



I told Allie that the stapler was out of staples and asked her to get some staples out of the desk drawer. She literally brought me ONE staple.

*********************************************

Allie: "Momma, how many hairs do I have on my head?"
Mommy: "Ummm, maybe a million?"
Allie: "So, more than 65?"
Mommy: "Yes, more than 65."

*********************************************

Allie: "Momma, is heaven or space the furthest?"
Mommy: "I'm pretty sure heaven is further than space."
Allie: "Ok, I love you all the way to heaven and back."

Artwork

Zachary has made some cute stuff recently. He is super creative and spends hours every day working on projects and drawings. Both of these are pictures that include me & some of my favorite things, so of course, I have to share them!
In this first one, Zac drew me, wearing my favorite color and (his version of) my favorite hairstyle, along with a rainbow and an elephant (my favorite animal).

In this one, his teacher asked them to draw their 3 favorite things in the hearts and then create a sentence for each one. She wants them to spell the words the way they sound, as they learn to write. So, the first heart has a lady in a red dress (again, me & my favorite color) and his first sentence says, "I love mommy." The second heart has a plate of ravioli and the second sentence says, "I love ravioli." The third heart has a picture of him coloring and that sentence says, "I love to color."

Umbrellas

The other day, my kids brilliantly opened all our umbrellas and had a blast playing with them! I was impressed with such a creative idea that also provided a whole afternoon of fun.

100th day



Today is the 100th day of Kindergarten. Zachary had such a fun time celebrating 100 days and learning about ways to count to 100. This super fun party hat has 10 strips that each have 10 stickers, which he understands is 10x10=100. Yay!! Such a fun way to learn.
