My sweet boys

Last night after supper I was feeling tired and somewhat had a headache. It was that nagging feeling that is just enough pain to be a little bothersome. I knew I hadn't eaten enough at lunch and attribute my pain to this. The boys were "playing puzzles" as Caleb says on the living room floor. I got down on the floor and put my head on Caleb's pillow. Then he snuggles up beside me and also covers me up with my robe and a blanket. JMP turned off the lights and rubbed my shoulders and head a bit. It was nice to just stop and do nothing for a while. They were so sweet to help me feel better. Caleb kept giving me kisses. When he talked to Gramma he told her we were laying on the floor because Mommy's head was hurting because she ate too much food. He also told her that he wanted to make a princess cake for me for my birthday. We'd had this conversation last week. I asked him what sort of birthday cake he could have and then I said what about a princess cake. He thought I was silly because princesses are for "grirls." I think it's cute he wants to make me a princess cake with pink and purple!

As we grow in our capacities to see and enjoy the joys that God has placed in our lives, life becomes a glorious experience of discovering His endless wonders.

What a happy family! Great guys! Since I am the only girl in our house, too, I have gravitated to pink and purple. I'd love a princess cake, too!
