As we all turned to get back into the warm car....Elliot lagged behind.
As i turned to give him a final hollar to move it.....I see that he had quietly slipped on the grass into the frozen pond and he is trying to claw his way out of the water.
I run....fast.....but he got himself out by the time i got to him....but only then did he cry out loud.
So many 'what if''s' plague my mind today. What if we had been closer to the car when that happened? What if we hadn't turned around when we did? What if the embankment had been steeper and he slipped all the way up to his head enstead of his waist?
There is no question in my mind that there is a God and that we are being looked out for....I will always have questions ABOUT God and what its all about but I have no doubt that i am his kid...holy and dearly loved. {colossians 3:12}...and i am feeling really really thankful tonight.
After we got home....I made lunch for a few extra peeps who decided to stay for a nice lunch!
Who doesn't love quesadillas?!
Kids Table!!!
Not sure where Pauls hand was planning on landing here.....
Rachel spent the afternoon upstairs working on her curriculum for the boys upcoming week while i puttered downstairs making spaghetti sauce for another round of homemade pasta tonight and caesar salad!! Chris and i also headed to Nancy's house to pick up Merryams old bunk bed.....so the boys were super excited about that new addition to their room!
Til now, they have been sleeping on a makeshift bed (isaac) and on the mattress on the floor (elliot).......so check it out!! NEW BEDS!! Off the ground!!!
Here they are at bedtime with their headlights on doing a little reading before bed.
Thank you Nancy and Merryam!! They love their new beds!!
