She's Taxed

This post is for my mom, who is on the tail end of tax season.x All she wants is to play Grandma and instead she's been staring at strangers and loads of paperwork day and night for the past three months. Like the bears rising from hibernation, she too will emerge from the cave that is her office to a world of light and spring and fruit. Happy Spring. Your Grandbabies are waiting for you to gobble them up.

Rain-kissed in April

Spring's Accompaniment: Rain & Bloom

April Rain Song
Let the rain kiss you
Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops
Let the rain sing you a lullaby
The rain makes still pools on the sidewalk
The rain makes running pools in the gutter
The rain plays a little sleep song on our roof at night
And I love the rain.

Colson Quote - He's on a Roll Folks




"Lewis,
Number one: I tie you up sometimes because you punch me in the face.
Number two: I want you to follow God and never go back. Stay focused in God."

Colson Quote



Context: Getting ready for church and doing something with Colson's hair.

Me: Colson stand still. Up straight. Look at me. This is really important.

*** pause*** "This is really important?" Did I really just say that?

Me: Colson, I was wrong. Doing your hair is not really important. Knowing Jesus is important. Worship is important.

Colson: What if some people made hair an idol?

Me: ha! lots of people do!

Colson, thank you for reminding me what is important on Easter Sunday.
