The entire contents of Annalivia's room and closet dumped on the floor. Me: Annalivia! What happened here?!?
Annalivia: I was trying to make a mountain!

A little more about me
I am....
wife of Dennis, my sweet love - the kindest, gentlest, funniest, smartest man I've ever known and EXACTLY the man for whom I prayed (and not at all who I thought I wanted but thankfully, God is wiser than I);
mother of Annalivia '05, Daniel '07, Emmeliese '09, Peter '10, and Elora (born into the arms of Jesus '13) the hearts of my own heart, joys of my life, far more than I ever prayed for because my mind could never conceive of such wonderfully intricate and delightful little beings;
granddaughter of grandparents who taught me to love fiercely and forgive freely and that it is better to be respectful rather than proved right and grateful rather than gratified;
daughter of two amazing people who have devoted themselves to their children and family and have continued to figure out ways to love each other;
sister of three incredibly intelligent, clever, imaginative, zany younger sisters, my best friends, who are crazy enough to keep coming back, even though I do all sorts of things to drive them nuts;
friend of some hilarious people from kindergarten, grade school, high school, college, seminary and beyond;
former pastor learning the joys and challenges of being called to be home full-time-ish while volunteer-teaching at a teeny classical school;
pilgrim bumbling forward on this amazingly glorious journey towards Home.

Where y'all are coming from
"You are the salt of the Earth." (Mt. 5:13)
"Have salt in yourselves and be at peace with one another" (Mk. 9:50)
"Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone" (Col. 4:6)

Oh, wow. That looks like my living room. Just behind me there is a mountain of LEGOs.
But a lot of creativity, too.
Time to toss them in the plastic bin and get out in the mud!
And then jump in the car. We're heading out of town...
I'm the "anonymous" above. I clicked on something too soon.
LoL! What is it with mountains? Landen is always making mountains. He's "On top of the World!" We were walking through the cemetery and the tops of the hills were mountains. =) I love kids.
Looks like fun!
April, what ages are your kiddos?
I love reading about their antics.
Jen
Annalivia is 3, Daniel is 1. Both celebrate birthdays in Feb.
