what a mess.

i just asked Kem what she wants to do today and she said clean the house cause its a mess. I wonder who taught her that.

kman assessed the situation. ''Yep its a broken tire. Ooo there's a lady bug.'' then he sat down and drew a broken tire on a piece of paper and said we need to send it to the police. Not sure why he thought that. He told me he was sorry this happened like ten times. Glad he was around to take it all in and make me feel a little better. Love this guy!

Its just that kind of day.

Its garden time! Kem and i went to the nursery to buy our plants and seeds. It was such a fun outing. She loved the wagon and alternated frequently between pushing and riding. The best part was whenever the tractor would come by she would scurry as fast as she could to get in the wagon as though it would offer some sort of protection. Silly girl.

k man is getting increasingly independent. So it was of little surprise when jared and i woke up on my birthday to a mess of paper and scissors and glue and glitter. He is not allowed to do this type of crafting on his own but i could not be mad because he created this beautiful picture for me on his own will. He remembered it was my birthday and i thought his gesture was so sweet. He is going to be a great man. I love my little guy!

Who ever had the idea to make this for dinner was a genius! :)

K man drew this pic of the sacred grove in primary. I thought it turned out beautiful. I don't think he understood what it was but it was a great drawing. I am very grateful for the children and youth programs at our church. Its so important that the kids learn gospel truths young and its nice for him to hear it from someone besides me.

I ran two miles today. In the rain. On my birthday. Crazy i know but i have never wanted something so bad and i am finally doing something about it. Feels good to actually accomplish something.
