We are Once in a Lifetime

Played a game with Sam tonight before bed. I say "I"...then he says "love"...then we both say "YOU". And there is much giggling afterwards. I confess, I didn't come up with this game, the Joyfulness started it. But again, it is great to see Sam interacting with us so well.
Speaking of interacting, check out the dude helping me and PawPaw with the dishwasher.





Myles has been quite the daddy's little helper lately. Today he helped me bag leaves and rake and...yes, that's right....raking leaves in April. I have 4 oak trees and they are very big, OK?


Anyway...back to Myles. He has also taken to using my tools. He especially likes the table saw and nail gun....I'm just KIDDING! But he does like the screwdriver, and the pliers, and the mallet. And somehow he mixes that with cars, and animals, and trains. I'm totally loving the "imaginative" play.

You know, sometimes I wish I had a little Polaroid (am I dating myself?), so that I could take snapshots of moments with my family. Do you ever find yourself looking at the ones you love and just going "click". As the song goes "It's no accident we're here...we are once in a lifetime".

I challenge you this next week to take some pictures with your Polaroid eyes. If you look around you will see the moments. With your children or with the ones you love.

Just remember to say "click".
