Martha’s latest moves!
Breakfast With Mercy
March 8th, 2016 by Aubri
We woke up to a beautiful cool, not cold, morning this weekend. The bigger babies took off outside and I sat with my coffee to soak it all up. This little late sleeper joined me for her bowl of Froot Loops.
Daybook: Late Winter
March 6th, 2016 by Aubri
Living Seasonally:
We’re nearing the end of many of the seasons God has given us recently. We’re over half way through Lent, our days at the rental are coming to an end, Winter is waning and I’m in the final 3 months of pregnancy. Being this close to all these finish lines creates a restlessness in me. There but not just yet. Waiting a bit longer.
I have such little energy of body or mind these days. The calendar marks seasons, festivals, commemorations, holidays and I seem to merely be able to acknowledge them with a nod and a few words but little else. I’m just so tired.
The Things They Say
March 5th, 2016 by Aubri
Esther has really been on a roll lately.
Esther: Mama, can I help you cook? That always puts a smile on my face.
How can you say no to that?
Lily: I was looking forward to supper.
Esther: I was looking backwards to supper.
Esther: Clara is a baby Pamper (Panther). She has a sore froat (throat) so I gave her medicine meat.
Mama: You gotta try this meat, it’s gonna knock your socks off!
Esther: I’m not wearing any socks.
Tries meat.
Esther: Mmm, this meat does knock my feet off Mama!
Esther: I’m not wearing any socks.
Tries meat.
Esther: Mmm, this meat does knock my feet off Mama!
Gerhardt: Did you know my armpits get super hot? When I scratch them they get cold.
Boys.
Gerhardt: Mama! Martha was slobberin’ all over Jesus!
