An invitation to dinner

So Brilynn is shaking the rugs, I am sweeping the dinning room, Haven is putting the silver wear away, and Gabriel is.... I thought I would die when I looked over to see him picking the dishes up like this to PUT THEM AWAY! The following words came out of our mouths: Me "Gabriel what in the world are you doing?!" Gabriel (cool as a cucumber) "Putting away dishes like you said". Me "Gabriel we are all.." Gabriel "I know Mom "going to die of germs" but isn't this cool, I don't have to get down to get each plate". Me "Stop that right now, those all have to be rewashed!" Gabriel "I know". (Insert a two second delay) Me "Wait, stop, let me get a picture of that" (I just knew, everyone, especially the friends and family who "used" to come over for a meal would want to see how we do chores). Click, click, click. "Ok that is disgusting, get down and put them away the correct way and make sure to rewash the toe plates". Gabriel "ok Mom but it is pretty cool" Me "Yes, son, it really is cool, sometimes your talents are just too much for me".
We are having cheesy baked lentils tonight if anyone would like to stop by...

Cast is off

Haven got her cast off Friday-yay! I didn't realize that her arm would be sore and stiff (duh). Any tiny bump and she was crying (and yes I did take her diretly to the nearest frozen yogurt shop). In less than an hour, I was wishing the cast was still on. God is gracious and gave us a beautiful day and my more beautiful friend Krista, asked us to go to the park with her. It took Haven about three minutes to get so into playing that she forgot about her arm. She worked out the stiffness without even noticing it. It truely was God's timing, as we live in Indiana so Saturday was absolutely freezing.
