Without a doubt, my most (unexpected) favorite part of parenting is watching my kids together. I adore watching them play together, take care of each other, love on each other, be excited to see each other, helping each other, and begging for more siblings. The bond they share is strong and beautiful. Of course they have their moments of fighting (usually over who gets to push Katie in the stroller) but for the most part, they adore each other. That is a HUGE part of me homeschooling...so that those relationships can continue to grow.
Spotted this summer...
{Alaina reading to her brothers}
{swimming and jumping and splashing}
{three bakers baking up "bread" and "pizza" -- I LOVE their imaginations!}
{pretending it is winter -- when you live 6 degrees off the equator that is a lot of pretending!}
{four super heroes in their half-finished capes}
{four silly little people who make my heart BURST with love and adoration}
How goofy it is that I'm sitting here all teary-eyed over these scenes, these observations, these emotions? I love happy tears :)
