When I got on Facebook today it reminded me that I posted this picture six years ago:
These are the pictures I took this morning:
My life has done a 360.
Usually I really dread spelling bee day. But Ryan is so confident and laid back, I knew that he'd be fine with whatever happened. Also, Jeff went to watch while I stayed with Brynn. I'm much less nervous getting a play-by-play through text than watching it in person.
Erik asked me earlier this week if I would teach him how to bake. We started with brownies. I think this will actually be good for him. He's a very cautious boy. Baking required him to get his hands dirty (cracking eggs) and be aggressive (stirring the batter vigorously).
My view for the third time this week. I'm in the drive-up at the pharmacy. Three kids with strep throat, three different days.
Sometimes giving Brynn my phone at church is a good way to entertain her. She'll probably take some random pictures and she might figure out how to start the music and play loud Christmas music in the middle of Sunday school. It's worth it.
I am dying over the Bailey/Brynn pictures! They have the same face, different hair. Makes me want to snuggle all over them, especially Brynn in her soft jams.
ReplyDeleteAnd I know what you mean about giving Brynn your phone in church. When I was in Primary, we had a particularly spirited four year old girl. She spent many a sharing time on my lap with my phone--until the time she pushed the wrong button and played "Back in Black" by ACDC right in the middle of the lesson. My phone was new, so I didn't know how to switch it off. You have never seen three Primary leaders scramble so fast, whisper-shouting instructions and grabbing it from my shaking hands. The teachers all loved it. The kids barely noticed.
PS: Well done, starting Erik with brownies. Brownies are delicious.
