Plugging along in school

We've been hard at work with school lately. Caroline is loving going to "pwe-school." It must be something about her age, but suddenly so many things are coming together in that little brain of hers. It's so fun to hear her explain how things work to me. Boy does she have a personality!!! The big girls (Taylor has asked me to stop calling her that, so don't tell her) went to a great art class last week. This was their interpretation of Ps 113:3.
I found this super sweet note this morning. That right there will melt your heart any day. Poor kid is going to spell like her mother. ;)

WPS!!!

We had a fantastic time in Auburn today with Papaw and Gran. The girls were great sports. In fact Anabelle was upset that we left with just a few min left to beat the crowd. Most importantly, we WON!!!

Working Hard and playing Hard

No words. Just a happy happy day! Thank you Lord.

This one is somethin'

Can you see her scheming in this pic?  I'm sure she is.  Looks pretty innocent, but wow.  Lately this one has been on a roll.  She's one like none other I've had.  Last night she got out of bed (a major no no at our house).  As I was calling her in to the living room to get her punishment I heard her talking to Taylor in the kitchen.  I questioned her, "What are you doing out of your bed?"  Her answer, "I had to tell Taylor that Anabelle came in my room and said I was soo snobby." Hmmm....Ok.  She took her punishment and went on to bed.  So, I called Anabelle and asked about the situation.  She was in shock!  She said, "Caroline came in MY room and said, 'Anabelle you are so snobby! What does that mean?"   If you're keeping score that's stealing and lying for munchkin.  We called Caroline back into the room with us and asked her to explain.  She stammered and wimpered and then with a manipulative little grin on her face she said, "uuuummmm....How 'bout this....I am sooo sooo sowwy."

No words.  I have no words.

First day of school

Caroline had her very first day of preschool this week. I've been sending three year olds to this same sweet school for so long. It's hard to imagine that it's already her turn. She was soo excited!! She just bopped out of the car with no nerves showing.
And apparently she was very fond of one particular toy phone. BECAUSE she snuck it home in her bloomers!!!'. Shannon found it about thirty min later while he was putting her in her carseat. I can't imagine what the sweet carpool lady was thinking when she felt it while buckling her in. What in the world? I'm raising a kleptomaniac?? That a bold move on your first day of school. Needless to say she got punished and will be walking in so that I can watch her return the phone and apologize. WOW!

School starts

We have been going strong at school for a couple weeks now. WOW, two is definitely more than one. They are both doing so well. They really do love school. Anabelle just can't understand why I won't do school on Sat and Sunday. Bless her!

VBS

Ok fine! I'm sorry I've been such a bad blogger! Lately it seems like everyone I talk to has to say, "Anabelle's bday was in May! Get to blogging!"
So I can't start without including VBS, so here goes.
