8 Months

M(om): Joash, you are 8 months old today!

J(oash): I know, Mom. Isn't it great?

M: It certainly is.Why don't you tell us what a typical day is like for you.

J: Well, I get up around 7 and have breakfast. Then I play while you do some cleaning. I am usually in my ExerSaucer and I really like watching the vacuum move back and forth. I have a morning nap at 9:30 and I usually sleep until 11. 11: 30 is lunch time and then Dad comes home and I watch you and Dad eat your lunch. 1:30 is my next nap and most of the time I sleep until 3:00. Then I have a snack and if it nice outside, we go for a walk or to the beach. I love being outside! My supper is at 6 and you and Dad eat either at 5 or 7 depending on the milking schedule. I play with Dad for a while after I eat and then my before bed snack at 8 and then off to bed.

M: You have a pretty busy day. What are your favorite things to do when you play?

J: I really like jumping. I jump in my ExerSaucer and I have even jump on the trampoline with Dad. I also like to play the piano and look at books.  Since I can sit up all myself now, I like to play with different toys that you put around me. I really ones that make a noise when I shake them.
M: What other new things have you done this month?

J: Well, we went to visit Dad in the barn. That was fun.

M: Any sign of teeth?

J: Not yet, but I think they are coming.


M: How about talking?

J: Well, since I love Dad so much, I say "da,da,da" all of the time. I like to tell you stories too, Mom.

M: Any other new feats?


J: Well, speaking of feet,(why are rolling your eyes, Mom? You laugh when Dad makes jokes like that. I learned from the best.) I enjoy sucking on my toes. They are pretty tasty.

M: Any thoughts on crawling?

J: I can see how it would be a good thing to do. Then I could get my toys that are out of reach. But, I am not ready for it yet.

M: Thanks, Joash. I hope you have a great day.

J: Thanks, Mom. Now can you get my book for me?

In the Corn

Mataya got to go with her daddy to check on the corn. It will be ready to harvest soon! They decided to take some pictures. Mataya was so excited, she forgot to let daddy be in the picture. There we go. I thought this was sweet picture of a girl and her daddy.

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.

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. When the younger sister Pete was separated from as a child shows up in Sleeping Grass with her eleven-year-old son, Pete is forced to face a past he buried long ago, and Wilma discovers her long-awaited chance at redemption may come at a higher cost than she's willing to pay.
