lounging with daddy during lunch break.
'fishing' from her 'boat'. Recent developments of julia's play: Our dear daughter no longer plays with toys....the trend for this week has been a lot of imaginative play (which always happens) but with a new twist....using all sorts of random things from the house. (boxes, paper roles that i keep, baskets, scrap fabric, popsicle sticks, craft-puff-ball-things, etc etc. any thing that isn't classified in the 'toy' section, anything that is in the 'random box' in our home. )

I am forever amazed at what she comes up with, what she creates, and the ENDLESS chatter that accompanies whatever plot is forming in her mind. wow. somedays when i am tired, it just tuckers me out. haha. keeping up with her mind and babble is exhausting, but very satisfying and entertaining as well.

Funny moment today: while driving in the car i usually have the radio playing. This morning it was some Bible teacher. He was speaking about the three main things that the Bible is concerned with, and in his sermon he used a figure of speach, "If we were to boil the Bible's message down to three main points"....i continued listening without much thought to his choice of words, when a little voice piped up in the back seat....
"mom, we DON'T boil the Bible!"

Ah, i laughed. and then explained in toddler terms what a figure of speach was....it is hard to understand that people use word pictures that aren't really real or truthful things when you have a toddler mind that is set to understnad BLACK and WHITE. but we tried.

anyway. loves to all. hope you laughed too! :) we can all use a little good medicine! :)
