A bad hair day

So Bray's hair is getting quite long. I love it. This morning when he woke up it was matted and knotted into this giant ball that stuck out about 4 inches from his head. The pictures don't quite do it justice but you get the idea :)

Yesterday Mike and I celebrated 5 years of wedded bliss. And next week we are really going to celebrate by going to Madeline Island in Lake Superior for 3 days.... ahhh how lovely it will be. No kiddos. Just us. I know however I will miss the boys terribly and perhaps ask at least once if we should go home early :)

After we return the tides will turn and I will no longer be staying home full time. The summer passed by too quickly, as it always does. School will start and for me that means back to work at Hope Academy. I will be extra busy in the fall since I have decided to assist in coaching the first ever high school girls soccer team at the school. I am really excited about this! It just sounds like so much fun:)

The boys are doing great. When I think about them I just burst with love. And then I think this is just a fraction of how much God loves me. For I am His child. How can that be? I mean when I really stop to think about it, it is just crazy. I think about my boys all the time, I am so proud of all the things they do, I would do anything to protect them, I want the very best for them ect... and I am so so sinful, yet I feel that way. So just imagine how He loves us. I think it is like million times more perfect and intense than the love that I feel for my boys... Incredible.
