Still obsessed with Star Wars and potty humor, of course.
One day I let him take a bath in my tub.
A minute later, I turned around and
somehow he had found a way to fill the entire tub with bubbles.
Caroline just switched from dance to gymnastics.
(She was doing handstands during ballet class, so I took that as our cue to leave...)
She is so, so smart and outgoing. A social butterfly of her school, neighborhood, and our church. She continues to be a natural leader.
She's also on the intense side and needs help lightening up sometimes. :)
We've entered the 3rd grade girl drama, so much of our conversation is centered on who was mean today at recess, who's not speaking to who, and how to be a good friend.
It's kinda crazy to watch the world grow larger to your child as she grows older. New, bigger challenges arise. New fears and anxieties arise. Many times I find myself lost as to what parenting well looks like at this age.
Jameson's not in gymnastics class, but occasionally on Saturdays, he and Caroline go to "open gym" and he loves it.
He's getting so tall these days.
Though he's able to reason more now at 4,
it's so difficult to persuade him to do every little task.
Get on your shoes.
Go use the potty.
Wash your hands.
Get your coat on.
The struggle is real.
It was like the best hour of their life. ha ha ha ha

We've only had one snow this year thus far! The kids LOVE to sled down the hill behind our house.
10% of Liberty University students are sick with the flu this week, so we are keeping our fingers crossed it doesn't reach our house. (!!!)
Can I just freeze time still right now?? Be still my heart. May he always want to carry his baby around in public.

The days are long, but the years are so short.
Every day I want to cuddle and kiss them.
God, give me grace to be their mama.
I love those kids.
