WE WERE EXCITED TO BEGIN OUR MORNING AS WE HAD TWO PLAY DATES SCHEDULED BEFORE LUNCH. WE MADE A QUICK TRIP TO OUR FAVORITE DONUT SHOP, SCOTT'S, FOR "SPARKLE" DONUTS AND DONUT HOLES. WE THEN MADE OUR WAY TO THE HOLBERT'S HOUSE FOR A DONUT PICNIC AND FUN. THE HOLBERTS ARE ONE OF THREE FAMILIES WHO MOVED TO MADISON TO HELP PLANT THE VINE CHURCH. WE HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY BLESSED BY OUR INTERACTIONS WITH THIS LOVING FAMILY, AND HAVE APPRECIATED THEIR PRAYERFUL SUPPORT OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS.
HAPPY CHILDREN.
INFAMOUS DONUT "CHEESE"
SWEET GRACE AND CHARLOTTE HAVE BECOME FAST FRIENDS. THEY ARE OFTEN FOUND AROUND CHURCH HOLDING HANDS, CHASING THEIR YOUNGER BROTHERS, OR DANCING IN THE AISLES.
ENJOYING THE ATTENTION OF ANOTHER MOMMY.
AFTER OUR TIME WITH THE HOLBERTS, WE TRANSITIONED TO OUR LAST SOS PLAYGROUP AT A FAVORITE PARK.
SUCH SWEET GIRLS.
THIS LITTLE GUY PREFERS HIS SWING STATIONARY.
OUR SWEET ONES ENJOYING THEIR DONUT HOLES.
IT WAS THE PERFECT MORNING TO SPEND OUTSIDE, MAKING MEMORIES WITH SOME OF OUR FAVORITE FRIENDS. THE KIDS WERE EAGER TO GET INTO THEIR BEDS FOR NAP TIME, AFTER A FULL MORNING OF PLAY. I SPENT THE AFTERNOON ENJOYING THE GENTLE BREEZE AS I PACKED, BLOGGED, AND RESTED.
AFTER NAPS, WE TOOK A STROLL TO OUR NEIGHBORHOOD POND. EACH TIME THAT I AM THERE, I AM REMINDED HOW QUICKLY OUR SWEET ONES ARE GROWING. I CAN STILL REMEMBER STROLLING OUR BABY GIRL PAST THE LAKE, AND NOW I WATCH IN AWE AS OUR TWO SPIRITED CHILDREN RUN DOWN THE VERY SAME PATH. SO MANY MEMORIES TO CHERISH...
AS I TYPE, THE SUN IS SETTING OVER OUR FIELD AND OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS QUIET. THE LITTLE MAN IS SLEEPING PEACEFULLY. JEFF IS HOME AFTER A LONG DAY OF OPERATING, AND HE AND THE LITTLE LADY ARE WATCHING MUSIC VIDEOS ON HIS ipad. A ROSATTI'S PIZZA BOX LAYS OPEN ON OUR KITCHEN COUNTER, THE PIZZA HALF CONSUMED. WE ARE TIRED, CONTENT, AND BLESSED.
