short people

They are simply amazing me this week!  I am certain a change in attitude and behavior on my part is the reason, however, it's still awesome!  Seriously thinking about baking a cake tomorrow for my short people to celebrate our week!

Cameron has memorized 1 Timothy 4:9-13!  It is the K5 motto... This is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance (and for this we labor and strive), that we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, and especially of those who believe.  Command and teach these things.  Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.  Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to preaching and to teaching.  WOW!  We worked on this together, and I am amazed at Cameron's natural ability to memorize!  He is now on to the next passage...it is longer!  K5 is a much heavier study than Cam is used to, but he is embracing it and is so excited!  I love to see him fired up about these things!  {K5 is the discipleship program at our church for 5th graders.}

Miss Carleigh has made great strides in her morning routine.  She has a very hard time getting up in the morning and getting herself dressed and ready for school without a lot of prodding.  We sat down and talked about it, and I promised her no more prodding.  BUT...she would accept the natural consequences that came with dawdling...even if that meant she had to wear her jammies to school or go with messy hair.  Since then, she has woken with a smile on her face and has obeyed each command the first time with very little redirection!  YAY for her!  {This is HUGE my friends!}

Bri is fully potty-trained...both #1 and #2.  She still struggles a little with the latter, but we are working on it.  I practically threw her a party yesterday when she went all by herself (#2, that is.)

Caleb has been in rare form...super fantastic great terrific attitude!  The praise has been free-flowing for this because it is a very big deal!

Bella is a happy camper.  All smiles most of the day (meltdowns are few!)

Bayleigh...well...she's just her usual little dollface self!  She's always waving bye bye.  I ADORE watching her interact with her siblings...especially Cameron!  Those two are peas in a pod!  She makes him happy and he makes her happy!  LOVE it!

I have cool kids.
