6 going on 16!

Hope has been using a writing journal she got at her birthday now that school is out for summer. Every morning she works on a couple of pages during our "learning time".

I loved the one she wrote this morning



She must be her mother's daughter...before I could drive I always wanted a volkswagon too! :) If you are curious about the pink, purple, and red pj's...that is what she calls a car cover for when it rains, so her shiny car won't get wet. :) I also love that she is looking forward to going and getting the groceries for me, what a girl!

Father's Day

This is the gift I made for Andy for Father's Day. I had seen the silhouette project on another blog and thought I'd try it. What a joy to celebrate the love of my life yesterday. He is an amazing daddy! His life imitates that of Christ; he is a humble, wise, serving, gentle, loving, gracious man and I am so thankful that our children get to witness this character daily.

"The righteous man leads a blameless life; blessed are his children after him." ~Proverbs 20:7
