Innocent TWO

It's amazing how sweet and innocent our little ones truly are--especially when you look at them up against their older brother counterparts! There are amazing and wonderful things about those boys of mine as well!
Miss Lydia was eating her lunch with me. She took two bites and said, "All done!" while handing me the full bowel of spaghetti-o's! I said, "Take two more bites!" She happily nodded her head, retrieved her bowl, and said, "Take two more bites!"

Before I knew it, I was watching her take a bite, say "take two more bites", she'd take another bite and say, "take two more bites" until the bowl was almost gone! She was a happy little girl when she was done!

The girls are best friends...both much happier at the store when they are together!
We still had a few cries, tantrums, and lots of looks from people who either don't have children, are complete with their one child, or get a babysitter for shopping. I'm inclined to believe the latter does not usually occur, but I may be wrong.
I can say the shopping was done this week...a family adventure that only induced lots of stress, but the laundry will pile up and the house remain a partial mess while I start my weekend of work; I'm just not feeling very motivated to do it all this week!

I think the mini depression is starting...the one that precedes every move. I'm tired of packing, scrounging for food, money, help, and a place to lay our heads. I'm tired. Period.

Praying for you Crystal and your beautiful family. All the hard roads lead to better things in the end. I know it's hard to see that when you're in the middle of things as I have had to tell myself that a million times lately. Be strong, keep your head up, your kids are beautiful and so are you!
