Conversation this morning

Zerrick:  " Keagan, you don't ever eat people."
Keagan: "Why not?"
Zerrick: "There's two reasons. One reason is because you can't chew their bones and the other reason is because the Bible says you shouldn't eat people."
Keagan: "But my daddy could. He's big enough he could chew them."

That was the conversation I heard from my bedroom this morning.  They were up getting dressed and playing with Mathias in his crib.  Mathias is happy today and doesn't have any teeth marks on him that I can see! :) 
And Keagan has a huge big elevated view of his daddy.  There is no one bigger and stronger and better than HIS dad!  

Other things I'm so very glad about.  I'm DONE canning for the year.  And I'm going to the butcher shop today to pick up some of our beef we just got done. 

School is going good.  We're learning book things but we're also learning character things too.  I asked him if he misses going to the church school and he said not.  I'm still perplexed by that.

They're both learning and liking it. 
School.  We're still working on getting things in shape...waiting for our bookshelf.

Hey! Just wanted to say hi! Your boys look like so much fun! I read far enough to know you have an 8 yr old and a baby. How old is Keagan? And yeah, you on homeschooling? Is this your first year?

Out of the mouth of babes? I love listening to childrens' conversations. You can learn what they're thinking sometimes. Or what they're not thinking... Love those intelligent boys of yours, Shilah

Happy Birthday Keagan

Keagan turned three while we were in Idaho. So we made a cake and celebrated with the Skrivseth cousins this year. He was enthralled watching me make the cake. Had to have his little hand on that hat! gazing in adoration at it. Just about ready to blow those candles. He kept telling me that we couldn't sing Happy Birthday though. He's easily embarrassed! Silly guy! I rather like my little three year.

Forgiveness

 Forgiveness  Forgiveness has bones It has a brain It uses logic  And common sense  Forgiveness goes about Finding a common ground. It shows up in common places. It happens unsuspected. Forgiveness allows one to Name the thing that happened. Forgiveness gives one a way To see it for what it was. Forgiveness provides for the  Empty spaces in conversation  And allows one to listen  And grieve outside of one’s own experience. Forgiveness walks into a situation  And remembers. But walks with peace And knows calmness. Forgiveness has an earpiece  On the heart  And a microphone  At his mouth Saying the words that Forgiveness has given him. Forgiveness doesn’t walk with fear. Forgiveness looks alone. But He’s always always  Hand in hand with gentleness and kindness. Forgiveness can stand alone though. It doesn’t melt away or dissipate  With time. Forgiveness is that little happy wren  On your shoulder  Forgiveness sings...

Let me tell you how God answers prayer

      Did I ever write on here that I am teaching school at our little church school?  I absolutely love it and find that it's been a neat way to feel useful and invest in our bubble.  But I am requiring my kids to tell stories and write them and read them.  And right now they are in a four week story writing assignment and I began to wonder what I thought I was doing requiring something of them that I am not really proficient at nor am I very knowledgable about.       So for my story to write  let me tell you a little bit about how God answers prayer.  Sometime I feel like I should write Jeanie's whole story.  But not this time.             Jeanie's been having focal seizures.  We don't know when they started.  All we know is that we were advised to go get her growing pain/ leg cramps looked into and it started the beginning of many tests of which we still aren't done with....
