Peace Like A River


It was a wide river, mistakable for a lake or even an ocean unless you'd been wading and knew its current. Somehow I'd crossed it... Now I saw the stream regrouped below, flowing on through what might've been vineyards, pastures, orhards... It flowed between and alongside the rivers of people; from here it was no more than a silver wire winding toward the city. - Leif Enger, Peace Like A River

We took the kidlings to Walmart last night to have some pictures taken. Rhonda had them in some cute outfits. I'm convinced, those pictures with cute kids just sitting there smiling, etc.. those have to computer-generated images. No kid just sits there quietly and smiles sweetly for the camera. We had a time of it getting them to sit still long enough for a decent pose. We did get a good enough picture though. John is smiling, and Hanna has an acceptable expression.

Last night I was going to toss a ballon we had blown up to John. So, he put out his hands and cupped them together like when we show him how to catch. It's so cute, but it was funny because the balloon was bigger than his whole upper body, and he's trying to catch with this little tiny cupped hands. What a sweetie.

Last night, when he was trying to trick me into going into the bathroom so he could turn the reading light on, he said "go in the bathroom, sit on potty chair". ha, where did he come up with that?

Hanna almost fell out of the cart at Walmart. She was trying to get out, and Rhonda caught her. She also fell on the stair last night. Ouch, a bump-filled day. She just continues to be happy and giggly and a little sweetheart.
