Celebration Chuckles

Maybe this post and video clip
will ignite a spark in your vocal chords
and cause you to explode into a laughter filled day....

My grandparents were staying this week at mom's,
so they came over Wednesday night for a snack....

How many countless times did Grandad read books
to me on their many visits to our home?

Now it looks like he still isn't through with that tradition yet!

Notice Landon showing Grandma his "b00-boos" -
That kid gets a lot of mileage out of his cuts and bruises!

Morgan would touch Ethan's hair and just cackle...
...she did this for at least 5 minutes...


As I was preparing Ethan for the Fourth of July, I was singing a song to him about the men who died for our freedom and then it goes on to say that Jesus died for us so that we can be (spiritually) free. I explained this to him- about how if we ask Jesus into our hearts then we can go and live in Heaven with Him. Ethan looks back at me with this wide-eyed expression of excitement and said, "Thank you, Santa!" He picked this up somewhere :-) and was just using it as an expression!
Anyway, I asked him who we should thank because Jesus died on the cross for us. After a pause, he said, "God." Whew!


HAPPY 4TH
