life unscripted -
or scripted enough for a public blog : )
wow, sometimes i've thought i should really post something 'cause after all she does regularly. funny huh.
so it's been awhile and even now my mood is a bit melancholy. i think on so many different fronts right now my mind and really heart are all over the map. thinking through this. dealing with that. wondering about that. questioning this.
and its always extra dramatic when i can't even get it out of my head well enough to explain it to rex : )
right now the little girls are sleeping. its not the typical sunday afternoon since they are the only ones that are napping. everyone else is engrossed the 'bad birdie game' otherwise known as angry birds. the latest ipod game phenomenon around here.
i've thought about painting my toes since tonight is communion but here i sit ....
i haven't even taken many pictures since the last post. molly should have had birthday pictures. jack! should have had birthday pictures. you know i never regret one picture that i take. usually i regret not taking them. the whole 1st books for the kids (which came, by the way & i'm in love with them) have sent me on all sorts of memory trips.
like this picture for example. after church today i walked out to rex talking and i thought that is a picture, take it. and then i thought really what are they going to think .... but i walked way around and took it anyway. i would have regretted not taking it.
or this one .... rex didn't exactly focus on us : ) but i'm glad to have it.
a saturday morning - complete with the knife sticking out of the peanut butter & the milk in the way.
her hair is .... or can be quite electric.
so anyway - we've been here .... slightly picture-less. and honestly just a little off.
jacky - early morning on his birthday. 'that is my favorite cereal!' he exclaimed.
and that night -

jack boy's birthday treat this year was his very first bb gun.
i will say rex & i had a little shooting match and he didn't win : )
he just hit his first can -
and another -

oh here's another one of those non-regretted pictures : )
i'm sorry if you've got to the end of this and thought wow al, thanks for the rain shower.
but i might just go put some jeans on & paint my toes & pull my hair back 'cause after all some of my rules are pretty lame and unfounded and sticking to them is a waste of time.
: )
and to not leave this in the gutter .... click on over and listen to this. it was one of those moments in church where you kind of forget you should be parenting the kids around you & you just are caught up in how very good God has been to you ... or more specifically me.
