Time to build and paint that birdhouse Simon got for his birthday.

Check out the DETAILED instructions for how to paint and the TINY brush provided. Jason and I got a laugh out of that. Good thing we had our own paint brushes or the job would never get done.

Okay, maybe some paper to ease the cleanup might be prudent at this point....

Finished!

Isaac showed some mild interest but opted to continue his ds game instead.

Lately I feel like I'm examining his face as we talk and discovering a new person. The shape of his face, his eyebrows, expressions and voice are being rediscovered all of a sudden. Who is this big kid with the angular face and funny conversation?

We are spending extra time together as we've watched nearly all six seasons of Xena the Warrior Princess episodes over the last few weeks, laughing and discussing the stories together. He's growing up a little more and it's amazing. I'm thrilled to be living this lifestyle and spend so much time together; all the time in the world to watch my flowers grow.
