So yeah, I stink at blogging here :P Ah well. At least I can admit it!! But I'm hoping to blog a bit more regularly on my Small Mustard Seed blog at least - kind of like a bunch of little devotionals. I like the idea... it'll be a challenge for me & I need to at least attempt it!

One funny story about the boys & I need to take care of laundry (I have a million funny ones lately, so hopefully that will give me good reason to write again soon)!

The other morning, the boys came out of their room at about 6:30am. We have a "rule" that is mostly enforced (with little convincing thankfully) that they stay in until after 7am. So, as they walk into our room oh so quietly, Mark says "Guys, it's too early. You're gonna need to go back to bed." And without a peep, a tear, a change in posture or any other negative thing, they just turn around! They walk perfectly, sweetly & quietly into their room, turn the fan back on and close the door!!! Seriously, amazing! Mark & I were in shock!!! It was one of the sweetest moments. Then, at about 7am, I go in & they are both in bed, just chatting & laughing. I told Asher he did such a great job - then ask if he knows what he did... "I listened & obeyed" ... seriously, anyone else's heart melting?? It's good to know some things are sinking in :)

I'm proud that he is getting big enough to really think & make decisions on his own. Can't believe he's almost halfway through age 4!! They grow too fast :)
