"A house does not have to be perfect to be a home of joy, a child does not have to behave perfectly to love and be loved, and every moment of life does not have to be perfect to be of value. Too often, I realize, we fail to see the glorious reality of the simple joy that abounds in the seemingly mundane routine of day-to-day living. Instead, we tend to idolize the past, idealize the future, and devalue the present.... What better way to show our appreciation to Heavenly Father for what we have than to embrace our lives, albeit 'ordinary' and 'unexciting,' with joy?"

Its a Windy Day

But we managed to squeeze in a little park time. The sun was quite warm when ever the wind would stop blowing. Cooper, Piper and I found a little neighborhood park a few blocks away... it is the perfect size for a three year old!

Cooper LOVES to swing. I pushed him for a half hour before I told him my arms were tired. I think he'd have swung for another half hour at least!

Miss Piper looking quite serious- not to mention, very bald!
