A BOY IS

TRUTH with dirt on his face,

BEAUTY with a cut on his finger,

WISDOM with bubble gum in his hair,

and theHOPE of the future with a
frog in his pocket.

LITTLE GIRLS

Little girls are made of daisies and butterflies and soft kitty cat purrs

And all the precious memories of times that once were.

Little girls are made of angel's wings and giggles and a firefly's glow

And all the happy feelings, deep inside, that we all know.

Little girls are made of cinnamon and bubbles and fancy white pearls

And snowflakes and rainbows and ballerina twirls.

Little girls are made of sunshine and cupcakes and fresh morning dew,

And these are the reasons, little one, why everyone loves you.

Excitement in the Garden

Finally the sunflowers and pumpkins are ready! The boys were so excited to pick the sunflowers, rub off the buds and find the seeds. They picked out the seeds soaked them in salt water and baked them in the oven. They are loving eating them now!

Justin is so excited over the pumpkins. We have 5 picked now and another 5 growing. Oh the excitement! Alex is ready to cut and boil one for homemade pumpkin pie - the boys want them for decorations :).
