ONE STEP AHEAD

Let's Go Fly A Kite!

J. Bear and Big Daddy at Boomer Lake. I like the way the clouds look in this pic.


Big Daddy told J. Bear not to get the kite stuck in the trees. Her solution was just to raise her arm up. Like that was really going to help. Nice try!


No Charlie Brown kite eating tree this day!

Fun-tastic Toenails

The Boy and his Dog

One night as I was tucking Torpedo into bed, he said " I want dad to teach Gus to pray". I responded " We just prayed and the dog was with us, so he was praying too." Torpedo said "no I want him to bow down and close his eyes." I think Torpedo thinks of the dog as a real part of the family, human not dog.

The other great story about the boy and his dog happened a couple of nights ago. Torpedo was getting out of the shower and drying off. He was whipping the towel around and Gus was attacking him and the towel. All of a sudden Torpedo crouched down into a ninja move and yelled "the power of Jesus" and attacked Gus.
I love the fact that in his own strange ways the boy wants to share Jesus with his dog.

GUS

Meet Gus, he is the new addition to our family. He is a 9 week old Cairn terrior.
He is rip roaring to go in the mornings. He is learning to like his crate. He slept 6 hours last night which was a great thing. It is like having another baby around the house. We are all totally in love with him and I am pretty sure he is in love with us, too.

Book Worms

J.Bear is a great reader. She likes the Rainbow Fairy and Junie B.Jones books. Right now she is reading a Geronimo Stilton book.
Torpedo is learning to read. He is learning with a set of BOB books. It has to be his idea to read or he isn't interested. I think he knows how to read more than he lets on.
