fish tanks

I'm so grateful to know that God's Mercy is new every morning, that every day is truly a new day to experience His goodness and learn to express His love in new ways to those around me.
Today it is my attempt to 'teach and instruct' my kidlets rather then constantly scold and get agrivated at their child like ways...they are children after all and will be adults sooner then I like to think about!
This is all easier said then done of course, but my desire is to give them a child hood of actual leaning in as pleasant of a setting as possible.

Last night we set up a little fish tank! we don't have the fish yet but that didn't seem to matter as they were just so excited about the mere fact that it made bubbles and had a little light in it.
We ate our dinner in the mellow glow of a fish tank as if it was in the cozy light of a warm fire in the fire place!

It's amazing how fast a four year old and a two year old can get into mischief just in the next room especially when mommy forgets to put the powder away....they were covered in it and having a blast when I poked my head around the corner to check on them! I could hardly see them be cause of the cloud it produced.....How do you not laugh and take a picture???

Personal mommy moments are few and far between, but here I am trying out a new thing although the moments I am using now are a few random stolen ones that will very soon pass into more caeose and maham if I'm not careful!
I love my kidlets! they take me to depths of reality that I never new excisted, showing me new measures of God's love, and proving to me that my ablity to servive is in Christ alone!
His Grace, provision, and mercies that are new every morning are truly an ongoing reminder that His faithfullness is what carries me through each moment of every day.
