Household Noise

I must say that sometimes the noise level around here is deafening. But tonight, I'm struck by a profound sense of joy to hear Brooks singing VeggieTales' "A Thankful Heart is a Happy Heart" while he plays toys in the living room...

A thankful heart is a happy heart!
I'm glad for what I have,
That's an easy way to start!

For the love that He shares
When He listens to our prayers,
That's why I say thanks every day!



Jack is happily chattering to himself in his highchair while he finishes pulverizing some blueberries - his first full meal of table food successfully completed.


Dada's traveling for work on this Father's Day 2010, and I so wish he were here to enjoy the sweet (loud!) sounds of our little men.

I love you, Eric and I'm glad to be on this parenting journey with you. I love you, Brooks and Jack and am so glad I get to be your Momma!

So sorry Eric had to travel on Father's Day. What a bummer to be away from ya'll. Love the pictures and glimpses of your Chicago life.

I can so relate to the noise being deafening. I think mommies have extra sensitive ears. I love the song Brooks was singing. That's is so sweet! Hope you get to celebrate a belated Father's Day with Eric soon!
