i chuckle now, thinking God put this verse once again on my heart as it has meant so much to me as a mommy who "has young". and, i must say that i felt the truth of this verse hold me together as i cared for my hurt young.


now, jump to wednesday. i got a call from a friend saying she had tadpoles, praying mantises, and a caterpillar for my favorite little mister. so, i told the girls, "let's go!" as i got one of our booster seats out of our other car, sunshine girl decided to do some of her superpowers in btwn the 2 front seats. she put her hands on the armrests of the minivan & lifted up (pressing on her hands) as you would do on the parallel bars. apparently she was biting down on her lower lip when she slipped & smashed her face completely because there was blood EVERYWHERE. (ok, maybe not everywhere, but more than any mommy likes to see).
of course, i was home alone at the time & we still went to the house with the bugs since the mom is a biology / anatomy teacher like sam, so i know she would know if i was over reacting for stitches. (plus, they live 2 blocks from the hospital). she took one look at sunshine girl & said, "get going!"

in the car on the way to get icecream :) she said, "mom, there are 2 good things about my accident: 1. now my tooth is wiggly & 2. now we have a story for my brother!"
we go to the dentist monday & stitches come out wednesday. sam (who is studying to be a nurse) wants to take them out... hmmm... should we let him? i trust him.

i must say, i love the fact that my kids ask for their photos to be taken.
well, a happy start to summer! enjoy. more new work to be posted in the shop & here soon!
grace & peace,
julie

I love the new verse! That little lamb is sooo cute! I also can relate to the accidents. Blake is now called "booboo" since he gets one every day!
