Who moved my binki?

Today I followed myself around with my quick snap camera, capturing a day in the life of our twins. It was special! Okay so the day pretty much was like any other, I mean when do I not taking pictures of my beautiful children? Even at seven months, Erin and Kenny know how to turn on the charm for flash photography.

Speaking of maturity, or at least a sense of desire I have to share this brief moment of the twins on the chair. I often put both of the babies on my easy chair, aka ‘daddy’s chair.’ Kenny had fallen asleep with his pacifier; Erin was eyeing it with want. She took her little hand and reached over and pulled it from his sleeping suck and got it into her mouth before I had the time to think of grabbing the camera! The one day I actually purposefully followed them with it too! Goodness it was cute.
Avery scored her first goal in soccer last Saturday. After a brief pep talk from daddy where I informed her to play well and make her Aunt’s proud. She got after the ball and made it into the goal, and people cheered around her. She did not even know she make the goal at first, she just went to mommy saying, ‘mommy I tried to make the goal.’ It was quite a proud moment. One of those moments you are glad to be a mommy and daddy. Love my kids so very much.

Now with spring in fully swing, I will ignore the lingering weather reports of potential freezes yet to come. We have even more work to do around the house and yard as well. Its easier to call in help for the yard though, since I cant really operate heavy machinery and watch the kids at the same time. So I will leave that to some professionals. Along with trying to remodel the kitchen and get new flooring as well. So much to do in this house, I mean we have been here five years now, which seems to have gone fast.

As we gather closer to Easter I have been doing even more reflection on life and ministry. Seeking to be a Servant of His in every way I can, in whatever way He desires. As long as I make myself available, He will be able to use me. The hard part of keeping up without priorities and making sure we keep Him first. As a parent and husband I need to be the Spiritual head of this family. Once I learn to being leading and directing things, we will discover even more for what God has for our lives.
