Prose: To Show Gratitude

How to show the grateful bliss
that creeps around my silent heart
I feel it pounding I want to shout
THANKYOU for all this joy and love
I don't deserve…I don’t deserve…
It can’t all be mine, it wouldn't be fair.
Yet the Lord doth give, what will the Lord take?
He will take my prayer of thanks I guess.
He will take my service to those who need.
They need what I've been given,
What I've found using one small secret.
This secret I hold dear, I cherish it,
But it can hurt at first.
Its preached from everywhere faith is.
Yet it is a secret to all those who have never tried and gave.
Tithing.
Unless you have given back what is not yours,
you will never know this secret.

Toddler Interactions

Friends from out of town that stayed with us last weekend. We love when we get to see them. Their little girl…ADORABLE. Little chatter box. Atlas and her had a lot of fun together and so did we grown ups

aaaand we’re back

You may have heard that a certain little hard-to-be-mad-at toddler pulled many of the keys off of my laptop keyboard. You know important keys like….spacebar….a….t……m…..comma……backspace….and many others. Making it surprisingly difficult/impossible to type. But I finally figured out how to get them back on, and fixed all of the keys except for the three key and the f9, but I think we will survive without.

So lets start the catchin-up with this super cool photo shoot with the little man:

Oh sorry just a minute, let me get a wet cloth to wipe off what appears to be spaghetti finger prints on the upper right of my screen (really, I don’t know how I’m just now noticing this…poor laptop in the home of a toddler…)

And then that very last one on the right, with him folding his arms. That one I showed him, fold you arms like this, then lean against the glass and smile….and he DID. :D but it only lasted a few sconds and that’s why I only got one shot and it is out of focus…
