Growing Kiddos


Life is just so fun, crazy, chaotic and at times rough with these three kiddos.  They are all growing and changing in to such amazing little people!  We have had such a great fall learning how to do school and work together.  The freedom and slower pace that homeschooling has given our family is amazing.  We all have more time together and more of that time is focused on intentional growth plus more of that time is focused a fun together!  We are so incredibly blessed!



Parker is maturing so much, doing terrific with his school work, having fun with Lacrosse and loving his brother and sister.  He is just so happy with life and his sense of humor is really showing lately.  



Carter brings endless energy to this family - it's never dull.  He just seems to be growing up so much recently.  He can tell a complete story in pretty clear sentences.  It's so amazing.  He impresses me sometimes with his cleverness.  As much as Carter loves his brother and sister, he can turn on them in a flash if what they want/do doesn't coincide with his plan.  We are in the heart of the three year old 'learning what it's all about' period.  Oh, and this little man LOVES tractors!


Our sweet little one - Grace Lin seems so comfortable with her family after over a year together.  She is a very confident and determined little girl.  Her determination has helped her to excel physically with walking,  jumping, etc. after six months of PT.  Now she is really learning to speak after having help from our sweet speech therapist Ann.  She is starting to talk in three word sentences and wants to read constantly.  She repeats so many words that we say and even when I sing her a song, she repeats the last word of each line. Lately, she loves, loves to walk around with a bag filled with who knows what over her arm and either push her baby stroller or shopping cart.  She loves, loves her 'Mama' too.  :)  


We spent the day at Burt's Pumpkin Patch with our sweet friends Juli and Ella Claire.
