Valentine Girls

-

The girls are so excited for Valentine's Day at school. Emma made homemade cards for each child in her class weeks before today.
When Matt is out of town the girls take turns sleeping on his side of the bed. This past week, who ever's turn it was to sleep in my room got to stay up and decorate a tissue box for all of the valentine cards they are going to get in class. We also read books together. When it was their turn, they got to make a special call to papa all by themselves, right before bed.
Having special nights like these makes it a little more bearable for the girls when papa leaves town for extended periods of time.
We can't wait till he comes home tomorrow!!!

Lunchtime Prayer

This is what Selah did when Matt announced we were going to have a prayer to bless the food for lunch. As you can tell she put down what she was playing with and got ready. Matt waited to start while I took the picture and she stayed like that until the prayer was over. Selah is our little cutie and seems to be doing new things every day!
