to sit on Santa’s lap for the first time. Here’s my dad on Santa’s lap. Dad, hope you get what you want for Christmas this year! And, here’s Drew and Ash too. Evan liked seeing Santa but did not want to sit on him for a picture…I can’t blame him. :)
the tooth museum under construction
For several weeks now, Evan’s front tooth has been loose. And, when I say “loose,” I mean that it’s been disgustingly loose, the kind of loose that when an adult would see it wiggle, he or she would grimace and feel compelled to look away. Loose teeth can be super nasty. We’ve been trying to get Evan to really wiggle it to encourage it to fall out since it looked so bad, we could barely look at him. But, he hated doing it. One night last week when I asked to see it, he told me that his mouth was a museum and that I could look from a distance but I couldn’t touch or an alarm would go off and I’d be “under arrested.” Interesting concept. So, the next day, when I asked him to see it, he told me that since it was raining, the tooth museum was closed. I came to learn that the tooth museum closes during rain, snow, sleet, and simply the dark. Drew insisted that my car keys could open even the closed tooth museum. But, Evan told us otherwise. I convinced him this morning to let me take a picture of the tooth museum so that I could make him a sign for it. Later today, he was playing with Daddy and out the tooth came without Evan even realizing it. Finally! So, now, we’ve been informed that the tooth museum is under construction. I must say, he looks much cuter missing a tooth than he did with a crazy snaggle tooth!
simple saturday
Saw this in my Grove City College magazine and loved it. The picture is of Rainbow Bridge on campus, where I remember standing with Mark and talking about how many children we wanted and growing old together.
The C. S. Lewis quote says:
Christianity is a world that is a great sculptor’s shop. We are the statues and there’s a rumor going around the shop that some of us are some day going to come to life.
I am thankful today of that hope.
