Costumes and Colouring

While there are parts of our life that are really busy these days, a few nice simple pleasures have surfaced that are worthy of remembering.

During Covid, two different people gave us a bag of dress-up clothes. What immense gifts! Our kids made great use of them, and they resurface from time to time. One of those times is now. Waverly is regularly in costume. Its her first move once breakfast is over. And if you know her at all, or have even regularly observed here through the blog, you know this girl has presence!

Oh ya. She owns the room, and she knows it.

Another real win is crafts. I am not awesome at crafting with the kids, but they have a ton of craft stuff and go through stages of what they like to work on. While most are working on leprechaun traps, Dekker snagged the colouring book I bought at Value Village recently that depicts intricate food pictures. In true Dekker fashion, he chose the “Just roll with it” picture that he could twist into a wheelchair joke, lol!

He’s a weird dude but I like him a lot.

I know it’s Friday, but it doesn’t necessarily feel as such. Tomorrow is a VERY full day, but I’m thankful for all the opportunities on our plate right now, and our ability to address each one, manage the time and energy, and come out well. That is ALL God, and we are overwhelmed with gratefulness!
