Enjoying peace and quiet for the first time in what feels like an eternity...and the first thought that pops into my head, "IT'S TOO QUIET!!"  I'm sure you've guessed by now that the kiddos aren't here, lol. Noah and Hales are spending the night with my Mom and little Lucas is snoozing away. I already miss my babies like crazy but am thankful for this little break. And then tomorrow, Caleb's Mom is picking the kids up and watching them for the day while we go get our health screenings done. :-)
     Not too much excitement has been going on around here. I did officially start preschool with Noah and Haleigh. We kicked off with The Very Hungry Caterpillar, then Dr. Seuss and this week we have focused on The Farm. :-)  I try to incorporate as many fun things as I can; for example, when we did our Dr. Seuss theme, we didn't just read Green Eggs and Ham...we ATE it, lol.  And yesterday I took the kids to a local produce store where they had a chance to learn about different fruits and veggies...and the greatest part is everything was grown just a few miles from there.
     Lucas will officially turn ONE in a month and five days and I'm like "Where did the time go?!?"  That little man has stolen my heart and I fall more in love with him every single day. I sometimes marvel at the ability the heart has to grow and grow to accommodate so much love. I couldn't thank God enough for my beautiful family; an amazing hubby and three precious kids.
     I'm hoping to start a new bible study today so I'm going to go and do that before Lucas wakes up. Hope each of you is having an amazing Thursday.
