Gifts


That sounds like a great gift!

Dinner with friends last week was a gift. 

An early birthday gift from my parents! 

Imaginary Travel




Maybe we should let him know there’s more out there to explore...

Palm Sunday Prep


We were asked to help make the sanctuary beautiful for Palm Sunday, so we took the boys along to help. They LOVED it. 

She’s a good babysitter. 

They were so excited to hold the doors open while the daddies moved the giant plants, shine the giant pots, water all the plants, and help arrange. 



Such a simple request. Such a big impact on the boys. 

Spring Soccer


Practice has begun! And the first game was rained out. 

He’s not too sure about the referees being there. He doesn’t want to mess up. I reminded him that making mistakes is how he learns and gets better. 

It’s so much fun to watch him have fun. ❤️

Home Is When I’m With You


While driving by our old house with her mom...

Ava: Looks like someone else is living there now. 
Mom: Does that make you sad? You know that we know where their new house is. And you’ve been there. 
Ava: Ya, but sometimes your friend’s house feels kind of like your house.

Me: i’m going to run this stuff up to our friend’s door.
L: technically, this is our house.
Me: no, technically this is the Rutledges house. We just paid them to live in it, and now our friends pay them to live in it. Remember we bought our own house?
L: it’s the Rutledges house? Then that kind of seems like a waste of money.
Me: what seems like a waste of money?
L: paying for a house that’s not ours.
Me: have you been talking to daddy about this?
L: 😏
Me: 😂
