New things!

We have two new things in our home this week...
1) We created a "prayer tree" on the wall in Audrey and Isaac's room, in order to help us remember all the people and events we are praying for. We put our names at the bottom of the tree and all of the names of people we are praying for on the leaves. We talked about how plants, when they are not watered enough, can lose their leaves and eventually die. So we need to keep our tree "well watered" with our prayers, and God provides the "son"shine. It is a great visual reminder for our kids every night when we read our Bible together and have prayertime...look close, you might even see your name up there!

2) Violet got a "Johnny Jumper" handed down to her! So she is enjoying getting a workout jumping up and down in the middle of the house while Audrey and Isaac are learning to not push her in it (like a swing). She's crawling so fast now (still army crawling) that it's nice to have her contained every once in a while! She's also getting a callous on her right knee and big toe from all the crawling! This is her "flying" position (all limbs off the floor) that she does when she gets happy!
