Proud Mama

The boys both had end of the year programs. Luke got an "outstanding penmanship" award. Here he is with some of his classmates.
He also received a "contentment" characteristic award for not complaining at school.

Sam also had a graduation ceremony and was asked some questions about what his favorite things in school to do was and what he wanted to be when he grew up....this was his answer "Uhhhh?"

The whole class also recited Psalm 23....pretty amazing.

red converse

This is how Luke came home from school the other day. These shoes are supposed to be bright red. A few thoughts:
1. What was he doing to get them this dirty.
2. Can you imagine wearing shoes this dirty and wet all day!
3. What did the inside of his classroom look like.
4. What was going through his head when he thought this would be fun.

Perseverance

Sam was cheering on his brother while he learned to ride his bike without training wheels.
Luke tried over and over and over and fell and fell and fell. He wanted to start and stop all on his own. He finally curled up and started to cry after falling about 50 times. After a little break, he mastered it and was super excited.

Boy's room

I really liked decorating this room....and am loving all the little things that make it special.Horse made by Luke's Uncle Kaine for him.This little bench was my grandmother's...Luke drew this last summer. I thought it was quite impressive.My Grandpa rigged this arrow for his tractors so he could remember what row he had just plowed. I love it in this room and have so much fun rumaging through the barns to find these treasures! And here is the reason that other room can stay so clean.....keeping it real....
Sam's nursery turned into the play room.
