Roly-poly, Pell-mell, Tumble-bumble

As I mentioned in Monday's post, the kids had the day off of school.  We went to "the farm", met daddy for lunch and then went to a park that we hadn't been to in a while (and wrapped the fun up with a stop for gelato, of course).  Instead of playing on the playground, the kids spent at least 45 minutes running up and down this sledding hill.  

 It was a blast to watch them.
There's something inspiring about watching children playing and running and rolling (in this case).  They are so carefree.  So full of energy and life.  I sat and tried to imprint that time in my mind.  The giggles, the breeze, the smell of the grass...

 

Oh how I love times like these with my amazing little creatures. 

 

And they delight in it too.  

Because kids feel most loved when you spend time with them-uninterrupted.

Even if it means just sitting on top of a hill watching them "roly-poly, pell-mell, tumble-bumble till they come to the green grass and stop short." 

(Poky the Little Puppy reference).

 

On Wednesday, I found this half sheet of paper on  the kitchen counter.  My daughter spent some time writing Bible verses and it really blessed me; especially the verses that she chose!  All three are amazing reminders.

Thanks for stopping by today!
