David has been making vulcanoes to display for everyone. A little experiement that he learned at school that he couldn't resist showing everyone. Sure beats his detirmination to show everyone the flame he can make with hand sanitizer!
Oh yes, & let's not forget about the tadpoles that are happily going through the process of metamorphasis on our back porch!
Stephen has a new interest. He is detirmined to be the sound man at church since we've just gotten a new sound system with a sound board (see more at
www.mtm-haiti.blogspot.com).
I may be partial, but I think he's a good lookin' sound man-sharp!
You know, God is certainly good to provide all that we need. Not just the material things, peace, grace & all that other spiritual stuff, but also examples.
We have loved our recent freinds/guests that are staying with us as they spend time with the daughter that they are adopting from Haiti. However, this week there have been 3 girls in our home, 2 are 10 yrs. old & 1 is 7 & on some days their 4 year old sister is with them in the house. These girls have kept my boys in "permenant eye roll" allowing them to see what they've "missed" by not having sisters! It is fun to watch.
Speaking of lessons, thank God David is seeing, at a very young age, why it is important to be careful who you choose to hang around with. Five 2nd grade boys got to write lines in the detention hall at school yesterday for "flooding" the boys' bathroom (Stephen said it really wasn't flooded~he's trying to take up for his little brother!). It has been confirmed by the teacher that David was a standby accomplice, but still...
parent teacher conferences are next Friday. If only David can not get any notes home until then, I will be brave enough to face his teacher!
Advantages: David is a great student & does well with his studies. His teacher also told me that when David gets into trouble, he knows what he did wrong. I guess that counts for something!
I still love my boys (all 3 of them!).
Praise the Lord!
