Thursday Thoughts

I can't believe it's been a WEEK...

Everyone in our house has been trading being sick this week,

and the last one to get it was my Little Man..

And when he feels bad... nothing works but

MOM being attached to his every move.

I have to secretly say that...

I do pretty much enjoy those moments..

He doesn't let me sit and rock with him much any more.

SO... the last couple of days sitting in our chair

with lots of snuggles while we rocked was

truly a tad bit of pleasure for me...
This morning however... he woke up and

wanted to go OUTSIDE....

So we grabbed our bucket of animals and headed out.

Brady is not a big toy playing kid...

He really only plays with his monkeys, dinosaurs, books,

and most of all...

HIS bucket of animals..

(some of which were Brent's, and are now 20 yrs. old)

Today while we were playing he disappeared

and went back in the house..
He came out with his Noah book,

and said "Read it Momma"

I giggled (sometimes out loud) as he started
acting out what I was reading..
Here he is building his arc..
Pretty good work I think for only pliers. haha

We loaded our animals on 2 by 2..
It amazed me that he matched up his little critters.
And if he had 3 of something then....
sorry to say they didn't make our arc.
He only took the "mom and baby matches"

You have to stretch your mind a little to follow our story.
Unless maybe every one's Noah wears a Safari suit,
and their arc looks strangely like a dump truck. haha
But... I've gotta say that's what made our story
Most Fabulous !!!

Once he had all this arc loaded up,
he drove it all around the yard
"it was a short rainy season" haha............
then he took all his matches off of our "boat"
and placed them safely on dry land.
space

I don't know for sure....

but I'm pretty positive that God was looking down

today at one little fellow ... smiling

Because I was certainly looking at him today thinking.....

that he is the very best of each of us

and I am 100% sure that I smiled...

space

May we never forget that right in the middle

of an ordinary day...

God can smile right straight down on you !
