"It is only by introducing the young
to great literature, drama, and music,
and to the excitement
of great science,
that we open to them
the possibilities
that lie within the human spirit--
enable them to see visions
and dream dreams."

It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart."

Oct. 16, 2009 - Show and Tell Friday.........Bithday Girl
For Today's Show and Tell we have a birthday at our house this week. For those of you who have been reading this blog for awhile, you may remember when this little toot was born. My how time flies!
Yes, our little Hope is two years old. She is at such a fun age.
She is talking better than most of her siblings were at this age. It's not always perfect English, but I understand her. When she says "yes" she says "dahs." It's cute, really.
Last night in the van Daddy said, "Something is stinky in here." Hope said, "Boys are stinky." LOL
She is also potty training and doing well with it. I tried the "wait and they'll do it themselves" approach to potty training with Joy. It hasn't worked for her. She is almost four now and I have just decided to buckle down and train both girls as once. But, I digress....
Hope is such a sweetie. She loves her baby dolls and takes such good care of them. If someone is hurt or crying, she will go over and pat their back and say, "K, is K" (It's okay)
She loves to sing and dance in her own little way and keeps us entertained. Two year olds are so much fun to have around.
Because I am so lazy and late with this post, to go see other Show and Tell posts click on the CanadaGirl link in the left sidebar.
Yes, I do remember when this little pumpkin was born (I don't eat them by the way, but your pictures and recipes sure do tempt me to rethink that). It's amazing, and pleasant deep down, to think that I've kept up with your family for that long. I hope her celebration was a happy one.
You look fabulous after just having had the baby so soon!
Thanks for stopping by the other day, and for your encouragement and wisdom. God bless you. Are you schooling right now or did you take a break with the baby?
Wow I do remember when this sweet girl was born ! I can't believe how time passes. She sounds like such a blessings. I am so glad you all have this sweet gift from God.
I sorry I didn't get this comment to you earlier. I thought I left a comment but alas I must have spaced.
