My mom said I couldn't quit! She says she likes getting on here to look at the pictures and such. (She knows I'm terrible about sending them otherwise :-) ) Also my aunt and grandma want me to continue, too. And you don't mess with a grandma who spanked you when you were little! Love you, Grandma!
Plus QueenoftheHill gave me some ideas for blog entries. And debcorley gave me permission to blog only occasionally. Hope they don't come to regret their encouragement!
We've had some switching around with the children we watch. With the school year ending, Tori is now at home with her big sis and Naomi is at home with her mom, who is a teacher. Tori will only be coming back as a guest because she starts kindergarden this August! We've watched her since she was 4 months old. Hopefully Naomi will be stopping in occasionally this summer (when Mom and Dad need a night out!) and will be coming back for daycare this fall.
We had one day "off" with only Summer to watch when we got a call to foster a sibling group of 3. So our summer has kicked off in a busy way! God's timing is amazing. We couldn't have accepted these 3 last week. And what a blessing we would have missed! They are great children and have adjusted well to being in our home. We went to the library on Saturday for the summer reading kickoff and the girls (Isabel, 8, and Victoria, 3) got butterflies painted on their cheeks.

Isabel spent some time the other day playing cards with our cat, Tansy. I'm not sure who won!

And the littlest, Moonie, 7 months, just hangs out with me in the living room! Since we usually only take girls, we've had to scramble a little to come up with gender-appropriate blankets, bottles, etc.! While he might not care about drinking from a pink bottle, his big sisters think it a little weird!

• Jun. 6, 2007 - YAHOOO!!! You've changed your mind!!!!
Isn't God gracious to give you some new little ones to love just as the others were leaving!? He must've known you'd be missing them!
Thanks to you and Heather for the book advice! I love the Little House series,too! We did two school seasons with the Prairie Primer! We all loved it!
We've not read those comics you mentioned...I'll have to check them out!
We've read all of the CS Lewis books you mentioned. Have you read the Space Trilogy he wrote? I am not interested in that genre, but I thought my Davis might like them.
