Cabin Fever

On Sunday the boys were wrestling, which is a really normal thing for them. This time I happened to be in the basement witnessing all the wrestling and while watching I realized why both boys have had trips to Urgent Care for stitches on Daddy's clock. :) Boys will be boys, I suppose. Furthermore, the boys have Cabin Fever. Aiden couldn't understand why he was not allowed to jump from the couch to the cedar chest where the T.V. is mounted on the wall. He said, "But Mama, I have to jump! Where can I jump? There is nothing inside that I can jump on!" I had to explain to him that I didn't want his head going through the T.V. screen and that no jumping on the furniture was a really common rule in American households. Tonight Sage was jumping on our bed yelling "Mama called the doctor and the doctor said, no more monkeys jumping on the bed." Then he fell off our bed and his head hit the railing. Through his sobbing Sage was saying, "No more ME jumping on the bed!" My poor boys! They need to get out of the house!

Brought back so many memories of Tom, his brothers and their Dad. Loved the pictures, love those boys and their Mama. The favorite when they were really little was"rolling,rolling, rolling."

Apple Creek

 A new year, a new orchard. This year we tried out Apple Creek Orchard and it was a really pretty place. We picked apples, took a hay ride, and the boys had fun with the apple slinger. We were joined by Tom's parents and it feels so good to have them now living close by instead of far away.

Almost to the finish line.

 It's hard to believe that Aiden turns 18 in one week and walks through graduation in just one month. After more than a decade of homeschooling, 2 years of PSEO, and no less than one million moments that I'll treasure forever, my oldest will be an adult and graduated. Great things are ahead for my boy!

Happy Birthday, Cade!

 My littlest is seven and it's hard  not to be sad. We couldn't be without him, and we're so glad he's ours.  At seven years old Cade loves to do what everyone else is doing. He will NOT play by himself, and maybe it's because he's used to having someone to entertain him all the time. He loves legos and soccer. He also loves to read. I am ALWAYS finding Cade trying to tackle reading a book he probably isn't quite ready for. Lately he's been trying to read The Hobbit. While he's able to read all the words, he just doesn't have the depth of understanding to read it independently quite yet. He LOVES Tom Sawyer so he was delighted to find an abridged version to read.  Cade makes up his own mind about things. He will NOT be bossed around. He holds his own, so I don't worry about his brothers pushing him over. Cade also won't be pushed over physically. He is one tough kid. If Cade is crying, I know he is actually hurt because he never cries ove...
