Another of my Valentines

This is King Keagan Michael Burkey


Here he is again.  Notice he always has that blanket ?  He's so thin and always cold when it's meal time.  


He got it on all by himself and feeling pretty smart!


The boys got these lincoln logs for Christmas.  Keagan spends the most time with them
and won't let me help....he wants to show me he can do it himself.  And he does a good job.


After watching Zerrick build exotic things he has to do it too...and again, he does
a pretty good job independently.  


On any game on here he knows just how it should be done.  If only
dad would let him push the buttons every time!

Remember a year or so ago how sick Keagan was because of the mold in our house?  Looking back has given me
courage.  He's so much healthier.  This winter Zerrick has been the one to be on antibiotics over and over.  And Keagan hasn't gotten sick! I'm so happy! He's a healthy smart little 4 year old.  He still has his high sense of embarrassment but his courage and humor is coming out again,  The other day he said, "Here's a joke, mom."  And then he blew in my face and said, "Boy it's windy today!"    I asked him where he got that joke and he said, "Zerrick".  So he takes Zerricks better jokes and makes them better.  (Zerrick has some pretty lame ones)! :)    I found a little Thomas laptop at Et Cetra the other day and he's been sitting at that thing for hours.  And he's learning his letters and numbers quite well.  He knows things I didn't know he knew!  So next school season he's going to be ready to shape those letters and numbers and actually do more hands on book stuff. At this point it looks like I'm going to be able to teach him to read when he's five at whatever pace he wants.  We'll see.  He's still my little imp.   And he's my rubberband and skinny skeleton boy....but he still comes in for hugs and tickles as often as possible.

I'm glad your family from afar can see your children growing up from pictures on your blog. Mine didn't have that privilege. We had snail mail photos,letters and phone calls. This nearby Grandma enjoys your posts too.

In My Worship Place

Last time I posted I mentioned being in a quiet spot.      It's curious to me how one can be in a quiet spot internally but super busy externally and then be in a quiet season externally but Internally be in a season of seeking and crying and lonely.      Zerrick and Susanna's reception in our yard is over and my many siblings showing up for us was a cherry on top.   It felt like a relaxed good reception and I spent most of it watching people and listening in on little groups of chatter.      And then the twelve hours with my siblings on Saturday.  God worked it out so I could have tiny little snitches of chat that I could be assured that I got the most of the gift of them even being here.        We all stood around and prayed and cried and sobbed together for a short time before Bruce's left.  Healing.  I still feel emotional about it.  And now it's qu...

A few things...

Okay, I have a whole pile of pictures I'm going to post one of these days. In the mean time....a few more questions to add to my last post.... 1. What do people mean when they say things like, " He/she spoke peace/ blessing/ love/truth or whatever into my heart? How does one get truth spoke into ones heart by another person? Okay, now I expect to hear someone defend themselves for saying this or else clarify to me why it sounds so off the wall......no reading this w/out some input! 2. What else? I was asking about what does it mean to have deeper relationship w/ God. So everyone said ya that's a good thing to desire. Here's my thought. You either have a relationship w/ God or you don't. So then who decides if it's a deeper relationship than....see how can you know? Can you compare? That won't work because God doesn't work like that....putting us on brackets of who is most spiritual. The only way you can use the term in having a deeper relationship w/ Go...

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.
