My wife sent this picture to me last week while I was away in Egypt. This picture was taken last Friday morning before the kids went to school. They are sporting their "homecoming" mums--it was homecoming weekend here last week. They look forward to creating and crafting their mums each year (we got them done before I left).
They are growing up so fast. Won't be long until this porch is empty and they are out in the world doing their thing. God grant me the time left with them to make sure that they are the best they can be.
Any suggestions for making the most of these days?

i'm asking myself the same question! i would say that you are probably already doing those things. and probably so am i. i have enjoyed watching mine grow but it is a bittersweet reality when we know that our time is limited to influence them and enjoy them fully.
choose your battles ... not EVERYTHING is a battle.

we're learning that... and discerning what and where to make our stand as they learn to walk on their own. it's hard and I depend on wisdom from those who have gone before (you!)
thanks
Jim
you made beautiful mums for the kids
