Candle By Night

Well, today was a special day. Why was it a special day? It was special because we were able to have lunch with Beloved. He works only about a block from the town square which is perfect for picnic lunches. They have a lot of picnic tables for people to be able to enjoy nice days on their lunch breaks. Now...I did not pack a picnic lunch. I have to confess we picked up our lunches on the way down to see Beloved. But the children enjoyed it. :-) Oh well, at least we got to spend his lunch hour with him and make new friends. Want to see the children's new friends? Here they are... Although Little E wanted nothing to do with them. He was happy eating his lunch. :-) They even got to meet Mark Twain. LOL But Mark Twain was a little boring for them, so they found new friends to play with. :-) Just Little E's size too. But their new friends were too scared to run through the water, but Big T and Sweet E definitely were not! Little E took the safe route...he ran around it. ;-) LOL The...

Well, Beloved and the children have a new project going on. It's doing some demo work in the apartment and believe it or not....the children love helping. And the pictures are so cute I just have to share. :-) First, hubby got the wall tore out of the kitchen and the drop ceiling taken down. These pics are of the children helping take down the ceiling. This stuff wouldn't hold the weight of insulation so it definitely needs to be replaced. If you click on the picture you can see that Sweet E is even wearing her "pearls" to do the work. LOL Sweet E and Big T took turns on the ladder. They keep asking when we are going to work on the apartment so they can swing a hammer some more. LOL Big T wasn't sure about being up on the ladder at first, but as the evening went on...he climbed up there with no fear. Unfortunately these are the only pictures I have for now. But there is still a lot of work to be down, so I am sure I will be sharing more. :-)

Let's see if I can get this posted. It's amazing as I look back at what I posted on Monday. I posted that God is good...all the time. Shortly after I posted this I got a phone call from Beloved. He was laid off. NCI cut 40% of the employees (which was already down to a skeleton staff). So please keep our family in your prayers as we move through yet another transition in our lives.
