Celebrating the ordinary and extraordinary with Like Mother, Like Daughter.
Pretty
Summer blooms in the garden.
The oak leaf hydrangea reminds me of a bridal bouquet.
Last summer my hydrangeas did not bloom at all but this summer was amazing.
The blooms are purple and blue.
Happy
After teaching our first five children to read,
I was struggling to set aside time to teach our Gracie girl to read.
She's learning to read and Daddy is teaching her!
It is beautiful and precious to see the two of them together.

Funny
The little boys have been enjoying bike rides with Daddy.
One of them usually falls asleep.

Real
If you take little people to the store in the evening, they might fall asleep on the drive home. You might tuck them in bed and they probably will miss dinner. Which means they might wake up in the wee hours hungry and alert!

Yes, 2:13 am.
After eating half a bagel, they will fall asleep on the nearest piece of soft furniture.
Or play until one very tired Mama or Daddy carries you upstairs.
Oh.... the two o'clock hour. Don't envy you that one! But it seems you made the most of it. :)
ReplyDeleteI was wide awake b/c we were tossing and turning for a while before I decided let's head downstairs! :)
DeleteFunny that JP is always sleeping but Chris is awake! These summer days sometimes create wacky schedules.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely, and when they fall asleep early it seems so tempting to just let them be!
ReplyDeleteI love that Dad is helping to read...what a blessing :)
ReplyDeleteAmen! Just when I felt it couldn't be done; he stepped in. And what a joy it has been!
