always watching...always learning

Since the beginning of our relationship with Mary, we have always included our children. Sometimes by circumstance in that they are with us, but always in prayer. We have intentionally prayed nightly for Mary.

Sunday morning both girls wanted to braid their hair. (something their mother is TERRIBLE at doing) I asked Olivia why she wanted it braided and she commented that she wanted it to look like Mary's. Mary has long hair that she typically wears in a braid down her back.

The other day we were driving past the motel that Mary likes to stay at when she has the money. Nettie quickly stated, "Look mom, we're passing Mary's motel!" I chuckled to myself as I thought about how much our children learn just by being with and around us!
