Life Around Here

Sorry to everyone who has been dissapointed with my lack of posts lately. It has been a bit busy lately. We have been busy moving things around, getting ready for the baby. Lots of meeting and different things have been taking place. I have been doing a bit of extra cooking trying to get some freezer meals and things in the freezer to have on hand for when the baby arrives. And I have hit the third-trimester tired stage, so I have been enjoying a few more naps lately, which has been very nice.

Joash has been busy too. He helped his dad tune the piano.
 He has also been busy fixing things. He likes to use his hammer.
I was trying to get a picture of him and his hammer, so I told him to hold his hammer still. And this is what I got.
It makes me laugh and I hope it brings a smile to your face too.

Another story that makes me laugh every time I think about it. We have been working on getting Joash to not hit people. So, one day, after a warning to not hit, Joash was showing me how he could swing his arms around and not hit anything. He swung his arms around with such force, that he swung himself right off his feet and landed on his stomach. It caught him by surprise and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. I was laughing really hard, so he started laughing too. It was just like something you would see on America's Funniest Home Videos.

There are legends and myths of what happened thousands of years ago. And a dark, evil force is slowly threatening the peace this world has known for the last thousand years. And the one person who may have the answer to it all is an unlikely hero named Hyam. As a child, Hyam studied in the Long Hall with the magicians who know and practice magic. His gift was to be able to learn languages with an astounding speed. Yet, he was dismissed from the hall and only returned when his mother begged him too on her death bed. Hyam soon discovers he has powers beyond the mastery of language and understand the the fate and future of this world rests in his hands. Along the way, he teams up with Trace, an older magician who leaves his post as Master of a Long Hall to assist Hyam. He also frees a woman named Joelle and their friendship ...

Now that he's back, she's been praying for the chance to make things right, but she never expected God's answer to leave her flat on her face--literally--and up to her ears in meddling.
