Tot School ~ Letter Nn…part 2

~Ladybug is currently 26.5 months old~

We have had a very low key school week, without any sort of schedule.  Ladybug insists on school daily though so we did do some things!

Coloring numbers, using her dry erase activity center…IMG_0019

I was getting the “stop taking my picture” look while she was coloring her vocabulary cards…IMG_0023

Gluing her colored nets…IMG_0081

Gluing her shapes…IMG_0029

She insisted on using her Boca Beth puppet to color her bugs and put her markers away,  She loves this thing!

We have a mission team here serving and they brought their kids.  They are all old friends of ours from our hometown and enjoyed having them over one day,  Ladybug loved the school time attention from these 2 ladies…

We have a mission team here serving with us this week and it is made up of some really awesome friends from our hometown.  They brought their kids to serve also and it is wonderful.  We went out on Friday night to tour our city and while out a big rainstorm hit!  It was  such fun to watch the kids enjoy the cool rain on such a hot summer evening! Ladybug was loving it, eyeing the big kids… IMG_0194

Then finally heading out herself and dancing until it stopped, entertaining us all!

Sometimes I just want to put her cuteness in a bottle and drink it all up. I will miss this adorable stage of her life when it is done.  I am soaking up every cute 2 year old moment now!!!IMG_0162

My Fern is so beautiful. Still my favorite cat eve My Fern is so beautiful. Still my favorite cat ever. And that’s saying a lot!

I’m not very active on this account anymore mostly because my older kids don’t like to be photographed. I am passionate about fostering kittens and my foster kitten account @crazy_foster_kitten_lady is where I spend most of my Instagram time now.

I’ll share here every now and then, but I’m on the kitten account daily!
Have you ever seen Ivy Kids Kits? There are SO man Have you ever seen Ivy Kids Kits? There are SO many monthly kits for kids on the market now, but this one remains my favorite! We have partnered with @ivykidskits for many years and although my kids are now too old for them, I still spread the word!

This video shows a peek inside of a recent kit they sent us, Kermit the Hermit. You can buy individual kits or buy a monthly subscription!

It was a Christmas filled with many emotions. Joy, It was a Christmas filled with many emotions. Joy, happiness, excitement, surprise, sadness, longing, and a bit of emptiness. 

We celebrated with my parents on the 24th, and that was a very joyous celebration. We enjoyed church, gifts, food, and mostly one another. 

On the 25th we celebrated with my husband’s family and sadly we are missing our beloved Nana who went to be with Jesus a few weeks ago. We all did our best to honor her love for fun last night. We played games, we laughed, we ate well, but it was all mixed with a longing sadness, wishing we had her with us. 

The next to last photo is it Kyler and my father in law, who lost his very best friend. We just love him so much and pray for his continued healing as he grieves this horrible loss and emptiness. 

The final photo is of Nana’s grandkids each holding their collage of photos of them and their Nana. This gift brought some tears, but we can tell will be treasured by each of them. She was one of a kind, and so special to all six of them.

Tree decorating night! Goodness I love my kids. Tree decorating night! Goodness I love my kids.
I know many of you don’t know many of the people I know many of you don’t know many of the people in this photo, but I know many of you pray. The beautiful woman on the far left of the couch is my bonus-momma, my husband’s mom. She has stopped all treatment for her cancer and is going home to be with Jesus soon. We prayed for her to feel well enough to be with us at Thanksgiving, and though she felt pretty crappy, she was there. 

If you know her, you know what I mean when I say this is one of the kindest, most joyful, selfless people I have ever known. The world won’t be the same without her. We are devastated and hurting. We pray for her peace, her comfort, her pain, and for God to relieve her of the suffering. 

Last night was a huge mixture of pure joy and devastating sadness. We celebrated and hugged, and laughed, and we cried. It’s just so hard. Thanks for praying for our family. ❤️

Mabel has turned out to be the most entertaining c Mabel has turned out to be the most entertaining cat we have ever had. She is sweet and sassy, mischievous and marvelous. Equal parts of each. She annoys all of our other animals just like a little sister should and keeps the humans on our toes too. She LOVES Lili, and is still BFF with Pebbles (Lili’s cat). So glad we decided to add this rambunctious ball of fluff to our crew!
