sick sick, sick, sick

That's the score 4 sick, 9 well. Some of the wells are threatening to be sicks. Only Lydia ended up on antibiotics with bronchitis. She is handling it as well as any princess. I am holding the baby who can only sleep sitting up. It is a rough job but somebody has to do it. I think I hear the children cleaning as I sit here watching the Ravens vs. Steelers. I am not sure what has possessed them as I am not herding them but I think it is great!!!!

Speaking of Steelers, Samantha bought Lydia a Steelers cheerleading dress for Christmas. It is too cute unless your are a Ravens fan. I have 2 Steeler fans in a house full of Raven fans. The Steelers fans are trying to indoctrinate the two year old.

Anyway, he was speaking of the Old Testament being about Jesus and the New Testament being about Jesus. He reviewed many prophesies fulfilled and it was beautiful to be reminded of all that Jesus has done and will do. It is all about Jesus!

If you have this problem read, pray and meditate on this verse, chapter, principle etc. The Bible is not some rule book. Follow the rules and you will get xyz. If you have this problem and follow this formula your results will be..... That is not to say that there is not instruction and warning and tho...

2 year olds are so much fun

Our current two year old is so much fun. I caught her writing on a bin and asked her for the marker. She says "no problem" and handed me the marker. There isn't a 3 syllable word she can't say. Being number 10 she has a role models left and right. We had to relocate our sugar container to higher ground to keep sticky fingers out.

the worst thing he could think of

We were reviewing the Passover story and I asked what happened when the Pharoah refused to let the Isrealites go. Josiah yelled out. " oh, I know, he sent frogs, bugs, and carrots". Carrots!!! I just love moments like these.
