Random

Has it really been since Friday that I last blogged?  I thought I'd share some random things with you that have happened recently.

~ We were thankful my husband had a job to go to this week after all the talk of the government shutdown at the end of last week.

~ Our garden is starting to grow.  We've seen some of the plants getting bigger.  I had Caleb take pictures to watch the progress.  He was excited to see his corn getting taller. 

~ We bought a new lawn mower on Saturday.  Caleb was excited to get to push it and mow.  Daddy said it was hard to believe our boy is big enough to do that. 

~ We are looking for a new bed.  We can tell ours is getting old and isn't as comfortable anymore.

~ It rained Sunday night.  As Caleb was going to sleep he heard a rumble of thunder.  He told me "God heard my prayers" cause he'd just prayed for rain at bedtime.  I took a picture for him to show him the rain

~ We are having fun watching Caleb in tball.  They do it different here in that the coach pitches the ball and if after 5 balls the child doesn't hit it, he gets to use the tee to hit it.  I think some of these little ones just don't have the motor skills to hit a ball thrown to them yet.  But I have seen progress made by them at practice.  Caleb thinks it is grand to be able to hit the ball thrown by the coach into outfield.  Very exciting!  He has a game Thursday and Saturday and a make-up game next Monday.

~ I am listening to Beth Moore's So Long, Insecurity which I've read already.  She reads it herself, I'm enjoying it.

~ I am going on a field trip with first graders on Friday! 

Have a day of blessings!
