no worries


but we are finishing up our first cold of the season. we have not been seeing many folks so as not to share the snot. i am introverted, but can tell i still need to talk to adults when i have been hibernating like this. it can really make you crazy. for real. and also, all the wakeful children at night makes me remember newborn days...i have renewed sympathy for my friends and family with new ones! miles has been uncharacteristically fussy and needs to be touching me at all times unless he is mercifully sleeping in his crib. i tried to cook dinner with him in the ergo last night and it was quite problematic as he kept grabbing things. and yes, i tried him on my back...would.not.have it.

it helps us to get out of the house. so we went on a picnic the other day


and today we gathered nature after our run and arranged it in vases. i love to see the kids get excited about nature and all the details to be found in a simple fallen leaf or a bit of queen anne's lace.


and on a random note, we are doing keller's Gospel in Life in Bible study, which i missed today. however, i was reading it this morning while graham laid his head in my lap and it is SOOOO good...repentance, idolatry (surprising from keller, yes?), grace, Gospel. i need this...working it in so that i actually believe...
