Joy Baths

Ethan is such a sweet and unique boy. He is so fun. Most of his baths are "hurry up and get clean so I can go to church baths" or "I peed my pants and I need to get clean baths." You get the idea. Well a few minutes ago he was outside and Austin splashed muddy water all over him. He came in sad. He even had mud in his ear. I filled the tub with some warm water and put him in. He looked up at me with his sweet little face and said "Is this a joy bath?" I said "yes, this can be a joy bath." He was so excited to have a joy bath.

He loves this hat that he is wearing in this picture. He wears it all of the time and thinks he is a cowboy..lol. He has such a fun personality.

Spencer, Austin, and Hailey all have 4h projects submitted to the fair this year. I am excited for them to go and see how their things do. I took pictures of Spencer and Austin for their record books. Here they are with the pillow cases they sewed. I didn't get a picture of Hailey with her pillow case but now I'm thinking I need to.

"Joy bath" That's cute!
Did your kids sew their pillowcases all by themselves? Good job to the kids on their 4H!

Coming to terms.....

I love having 5 children. They are the joy of my life. I love every single one of them and wouldn't change who they are, but one struggle I've had is that I desperately wish that my little Hailey could have a sister. I grew up in a girl family where I had one brother and six sisters. I am close to my sisters and I talk to a couple of them every day. They are my best friends and we support one another through our ups and downs. More than anything I wish Hailey could have a sister because I love having sisters so much....don't get me wrong I love my boys and wouldn't give them up or trade them for a girl any day, I just want Hailey to have a sister to feel close to like I have. Maybe I'm a little selfish and I should just be grateful for the wonderful and healthy kids that I have....and believe me I do feel thankful for that. Maybe a sister was just too much to ask for. I have spent many fast Sundays fasting for myself to come to terms with the fact that Haile...

Goodby to Jasper

Around 5 our neighbor knocked on our door and showed me that Jasper was laying in the road in front of our house dead. :( I'm so sad. I'm going to miss him. He was my faithful running companion. On Monday when we ran his fur was covered with frost when we got back because it was so cold. I got him so food and petted him and told him what a great running friend he is. He was such a smart dog he knew all of the turn around points when I would run. He would stop and wait for me at every one of them and if I kept going he would lick my leg and then keep running with me. I hate to be licked and he would always sneak and lick me whenever possible. Every time I was getting into the van he would lick my jeans. I always felt safe running with him because people are so scared of him and I know he would have protected me if I'd needed it. We are going to get another dog but I can't imagine that we will ever get one that is as great of a companion as Jasper. Jasper was such a lovin...
