Caterpillars

Caroline's collected a few furry little caterpillars this past week, which we placed in individual jars.  We found them food, shelter, water, air, and a little sunshine.  Caroline read books to them, tucked them into bed, and greeted them anxiously the next morning. Sadly the caterpillars did not make it longer than 24 hours...We are going to release the caterpillars this afternoon.  Maybe next time we will go straight to the butterflies.

Easter/April

 Hello blog friends!  Oh, how I have missed you!  We had an Easter full of laughter and fun.  Last year Caroline would take her sweet and precious time during the egg hunts, but this year the game was on!  She understood the egg hunting rules.  Caroline also understood the true meaning of Easter this year, and I got to answer a lot of questions concerning the empty tomb. 

Our church had another amazing week of Easter celebrations.  This year instead of the enormous egg hunt that usually takes place we sponsored an Easter carnival and a walk-though of the life of Jesus for the children.

Two Sweet Cousins

 We had a new arrival this week in the Guinn family.  Caroline and I have been making a several trips to see this sweet little boy, Greyson Wade Guinn.  A child is one of the biggest miracles from God!

 And I just loved this scripture that one of my friends posted this week...such a wonderful reminder that is needed.

 The trim work was finished this weekend for the upstairs room.  We are one step closer to completion! 

 I hope you all have a wonderful week! 

My Favorite Patient

Guess who came to see me this past week...my favorite patient!   Caroline loves to come see me at work and she HAS to have her teeth cleaned each time.  She is a wonderful patient!

March Update

 Oh my, oh my!  We have been staying busy.  It is spring time and the last thing that has crossed my mind has been the blog, but I wanted to share some highlights from this month.

Highlight #1) Matt will be home in less than 2 months!  It is hard to explain just how excited I am that my husband will be home.  We are headed to California for our vacation this summer and our family is thrilled.  We will be visiting San Diego, Anaheim, LA, Santa Barbara, Monterey, and San Francisco.

 Highlight #2) Caroline and I attended the Mandisa Concert.  I wish you could see the way this little girl praised...she never stopped dancing the first half of the concert.  After intermission was a different story...she gave out for the night and fell asleep.

 Highlight #3)  We finished sorting and matching thousands of Easter eggs for our church egg hunt.  It took us three weeks and plenty of help, but I hope each child is shown love as they pick up each egg.

 Highlight #4)  Attending the State Volunteer Workshop and meeting Adjutant General Wofford.  My brain is packed with information.

March has had many highlights, changes, and blessings for our family.   Please continue to pray for our family. 

Fun in the Sun

Fun in the sun today...and a little wind.  Isabella, Caroline, and Emma Grace had a blast at Twin Rivers Bridge.
