Love Only a Big Brother can Give


So it seems Keith is fond of his sister. He loves to hold her hand, pet her hair, share his bear with her, get her pacifier, and bury her in clothes. I have no worries about him protecting her when they are older. He will take care of her just as he does now. What a sweet boy I have.

Love the squished face pic of Keith with the helmet on, and the bow over the eyes, I love when babies do that!

Seems like Keith is getting his big brother in training done.

It is funny b/c Harm and Rach have a very similar relationship. But Harm doesn't like Callum too much, go figure! Gotta love tough big brothers!

So, I am finally catching up on everyone's blogs... I just have to say I love the photo of your baby with the headband over her eyes - it made me smile because that happens to our little Emersyn so often! The poor little things!

May I Take Your Order, Please?

I know that young people must have jobs. They have to start somewhere, but really, there has got to be some sort of intelligence test or guidelines before hiring people. Really.

We bought some crown molding a while ago. I thought we would have enough. Turns out, as we were getting ready to put it up, we found we are about 5 ln feet short. Just 5. How annoying is that? So, I called Lowes and ended up speaking with a young man (I am guessing hoping he was young). The conversation amazed me.

Me: "Hi do you carry any Trim-Tex crown molding?"
Lowes: "What's that?"
"A brand of crown molding. We are a couple of feet short."
"Is that like a brand of baseboard?"
"Well, yeah, sort of. Crown molding is decorative wood strip that goes along the ceiling."
"Oh, okay. So what kind of tile do you need?"
"Tile?"
"To go along the ceiling, right?"
"Uh, I don't need tile. I need crown molding."

Vegetarians at the Barbecue

We don't see our friends as often as we would like.  Something about us being the only ones married and with kids.  Whatever.  So any chance to have them all come play is a welcome one.  Since Jeffrey just had a birthday, we decided to have a barbecue tonight.

We are having a barbecue and we don't eat meat.  Kind of ironic, isn't it?  When I thought about it, this video came to mind.

The End of This Chapter

Last night the quiet of the house was heaven.

After a full day of the park, the library and the kids at their grandparents house while Jeffrey and I went up to take care of our rental house, lease signing, moving out inspection and repairs, we were all very tired.

The children were finally nestled into their dreams, and I sat with Jeffrey, my head resting on his shoulder, his hand caressing my arm, just visiting.

We talked about the children.  
We talked about school.
We talked about our rental house.
And our plans for the future.
As we sat thus, formulating plans and dreams, we had a rude awakening.

More so me.
Because Jeffrey is so calm and even keeled.  He balances me perfectly.

While I stress and worry, he is there to patiently and softly guide me through the storms of my frustrations and mostly imagined hardships.

Last night was a perfect example.
We received the news.

The dreaded and anticipated and longed for news.

And it came in the form of an email from a good friend.


And reality s…
