Little Blessings Sunday


Photo-A-Day #2942

Today was the annual Little Blessings Sunday event. It is a nice event for the kids at Eva’s School. They learn a few songs with lyrics and hand motions that they perform at Sunday service at the church where she goes to school. We make sure to go so that she can participate. It makes for a bad sleep day for me but is so worth it to be there to see her. She does such a great job on the stage.

Have I mentioned that she needs a theater program? Already? This week? Yep!

My sister, Shelby, was able to come and see Eva do her songs. Afterwards there was a little gathering with snacks and Eva got to spend a little time with Shelby while we chased Andrew around the place.

The title of this post also refers to my sister having a baby and Eva going to have a new little cousin in a few months. We’ve already worked the baby into our nightly prayers and the baby is referred to as “… and my new baby cousin”. Eva already has a lot of love for her new baby cousin and loves getting a chance to see Auntie Shelby. So she’s going to be even more excited when she gets to see Auntie Shelby and her new baby cousin when that new baby cousin is born.

He’s Walking!

It is time to tie everything in the house down. Andrew is walking and he’s walking a lot. Just in the past few days he has started walking unaided all over the house. If we put him down in the living room on his feet he will walk to the coffee table. Allison and I had him walking back and forth to each other across the dining room floor as we sorted through Christmas boxes.

I think that the Christmas tree must be anchored, not only because of him but the kittens as well. I am not sure that it will make it through the holidays when we put it up. I have a feeling that some of our ornaments are going to look very appealing to both child and kitten.
