Strawberry Jam

       This morning, Momma ran to the produce market and bought three flats of strawberries. She wants to have enough jam to last till the end of the year, and since strawberries are in season now, this is the perfect time to make some!

With good helpers, we finished all three flats this morning!

The fruit of our labor. :)

Happy Mother's Day!

                                    My Mother is an incredible woman.
      She loves the Lord, she loves Daddy, and she loves us. She chooses to spend her time cooking, cleaning, changing diapers, teaching school, giving medicine, answering questions, washing clothes, scheduling doctor appointments, disciplining, listening, planning, etc, etc, etc.  I could probably go on, but I'll stop there. :)

                    
       In the middle of all that Momma is still patient with us, even when we're unlovely.

                              She also happens to be one of my best friends!

                                      We love you Momma!!!

Swimming

A few days ago, we got to go swimming for the first time! The water was a bit on the cool side, but we had a blast.
