Super Powers

They can fly...

Natalie actually attempts a spin-move as she jumps...

Matthew focuses more on height and distance. Sorry about Noodles, I wish I could add a modesty patch over her "potty"...

And one for Natalie's bips...And there's no explanation for this face...
I really enjoy staying home with the kiddos. Some days when the weather is bad, we stay in our pj's all day and jump on couch cushions, play basketball, dance and sing to "Go Cubs Go", color, build legos and train tracks and just play. It's a riot. I also enjoy watching how kind my kids are to each other. They encourage each other, say please and thank-you to each other and randomly go up to one another for a hug. It is awesome to witness. Yeah, sometimes they have their moments of frustration and sharing issues, but they really are good buddies.

I went back to classes this week. I was glad to see my students again and walk with them. BUT, when leaving the house, Libby wants to eat and the bottle is just not the same as my "elbow" (see previous post), while Matthew and Natalie are up and running around telling Matt that they want him to make them eggs. My class started in 20 minutes and I could see the stress blowing out Matt's ears as he asked if I could help him with breakfast for the older kids. No, I could not. And I walked out the door. It was tough for me and I'm sure it was harder for him, so we'll see who goes to class for the remainder of the semester! Look at these faces...How could I not want to stay home?
