Main-moe





There was an awesome rainbow outside the other day. Justin and I took the boys outside (I toted my camera of course.) We were explaining to Oliver why God made the rainbow. We told him how God gave us the rainbow as a promise not to flood the world ever again. We explained that God had to flood the whole world, plants, animals, and people had to die, because the people were so mean and nasty. Oliver listened and then he told God "Tank-ooo for da main-moe God." Fast forward to yesterday. We are getting home from the laundromat. (No fun, in case you were curious.) Oliver walks out into the front yard. He is just walking around while we are trying to haul everything into the house. I hear him as I walk past to take in the clean clothes. "Hi God." He says as he is looking up as far as he can without falling over. I could have melted. These are the moments that I never want to forget.

You have two amazing children... and it's easy to see that it comes straight from you and Justin. I hope for all the best for you and your family!
