Oh what a week it has been. Some really wonderful times and some really hard times. I am learning that I need to be diligent in praying for my boys in good times as well as hard times. God is faithful to answer each and every time...I just need to cry out to him...I just need to ask.
Here are some pictures from our first day in NY. It was so nice to spend time with family:
Riding Naomi's little tractor
Welcoming Uncle Marty home from work!
Petting the chickens. Anthony is so good with animals. One of these days we need to get him a pet.
Digging in dirt...can't beat that!
We made it to NY and back home in record time. I was traveling alone with the boys so the 5 1/2 hour travel time was a huge relief. They both did well in the car. It helped to have bags full of snack items that they never get at home. It also helped to have the books on CD borrowed from the library.
Speaking of books...those two love to read. We've been changing things up a little since our return home and are starting our mornings off with reading the Bible instead of leaving it until the end of our day. It is such a nice way to start the day. During snack times and lunch, we've been reading Charlotte's Web. It is typical for them to beg me to read another chapter and then another one and then "just one more pleeeeaase!" Anthony now reports on what he has read in books with as much enthusiasm as his descriptions of movies he has seen. I love it!
