Deep thoughts...by Tina Myhre

To start off, I just want to explain that I've been attempting to upload photos to keep up with my blogs, but for some reason, my computer is being grumpy.  Maybe it's on summer vacation, too.  It's not just with the blog, it won't let me do it on my e-mails either, so let's just say I'm not in the best mood with my computer.

Speaking of bad moods...while pondering the past events and conversations/arguments with certain children these last few days, I came up with a "deep thought".

Children are a lot like balloons.

When they are fully inflated and flying high,

they are a source of great joy and smiles.

But when they pop or explode,

everybody's miserable,

and crying,

and blaming everyone,

and crying,

and throwing tantrums,

and crying,

and screaming,

until something either "inflates" them again...

 

...or they fall asleep.

 

Thank God for new days and the power of prayer!

So I know it's been a while...

...here's what we've been up to this past month and a half.

 

 Family get-togethers

 

Enjoying the outdoors & a beautiful spring



 

 

Some much needed R & R

 

 

 "We interrupt this family to bring you baseball season"

 

 

Vacation Bible School...160 kids (preschool & up)...enough said!

Recitals, recitals!

Quality bonding time...

 

Hopefully my next hiatus from the blog won't be quite so long!  I found that my time on the computer is short and often interrupted, so when I get on it, it's more for "work" stuff and the "fun" things get pushed aside for a while.  It's not very easy to type and stuff when holding an active 18 month old either...he's really good at kicking away the keyboard.  (He also still has no interest in weaning, mind you!  Some days it's just easier not to fight it.  It gives me an excuse to sit down and snuggle, too!)
