She insisted!

I was reading a blog when all of the sudden I hear Addison's frustrated cry. So I walk over to the other side of the coffee table and she's trying to put Caden's extra underware on! I first told her that they're "Nuh's" but she didn't care and insisted. So I put them on her...why not? Afterall Caden asked last night to have a "Pajama Day" today! Excuse the messy family room! We've had a blast playing today! I'm thankful we're just having a "rainy home day" and not a "snowy home day"! I think I'm done with those!

Caden's Faith Amazes Me!

Tonight this sweet, silly, brilliant and faith filled child and I had one of the most precious conversations we've ever had! Caden, Addison and I were on our way home from church and passed a synagouge. Caden asked if it was a church and I said no, it's called a temple or synagouge. He then asked if that was the name of their church. So I told him no. I wanted to keep it simple so I just said, "They believe some of the things the Bible says but not everything. They do not believe that Jesus was God's son." He then asked why. All I could come up with was that I didn't know! I then told him that the Jesus says in the Bible that the He is the truth, the way and the life and no one can go to heaven if they don't love God and Jesus." He innocently said, "Isn't everyone going to heaven?" I then had to explain to him that not everyone goes to heaven. He asked why. I responded with some people haven't heard of him yet and some people have made the choice not to love God and Jesus and choose not to believe in God. He again asked why and I had to tell him again that I don't know and that I don't understand why! He was quite. I thought he might be thinking but you never know. I went about a mile down the road and he said, "my heart is broken!" I asked why...you just don't know what that sweet boy is going to say! He responded so sweetly with, "My heart is broken that some people don't love God and Jesus!" Oh how my heart broke and smiled at the same time! My heart broke that there are those that choose not to have a personal relationship with God and smiled that my sweet boy loves My God!

I'm so thankful that God has answered a prayer that Brian and I have prayed over our children since we found out we were pregnant! I love that boy (and girl!) and can't wait to watch them grow and learn more and more about God! I can't wait for the day when our children have these conversations together and when AdEliz and I have these same sweet conversations! Isn't the faith of a child so refreashing??

Jesus answered, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except through me." John 14:6

It snowed...A lot!

It snowed so much that the Muller's aren't going anywhere...at least until we can't take it anymore! Hopefully we'll make it till Monday! Here's Caden getting ready for his first trip out! The first time he didn't last long. He didn't like the sleet hitting him in the face! As he was getting ready this last time he said that the scarf saved the day and it doesn't even choke him!




When Brian and Caden went out they were in the backyard and Addison watched like this for at least 10 minutes before she started telling me "out"!

It worked! I got her ready and sent her out thinking she wouldn't last! She's been out there for about 15 minutes already and is loving it!

They've got a good Daddy because I have no interest in going out there! At least not when it's 19 degrees outside!

Mom and Dad here's what you missed! We got that much snow!

She's a happy girl now!

He loved playing on his swing set even in the snow!

Jennifer's Little Helper

This morning was a little crazy! I thought Caden would get out of school an hour early since the schools were so I didn't pack a lunch. Well....he wasn't getting out early! So I took AdEliz to Jennifer's new house while I ran to the grocery store and then back to First Baptist. It looks like Jennifer had some help!

We better enjoy it....

before it's gone! The weather is just beautiful today! They're calling for snow and ice tomorrow night and Saturday! Today Jennifer watched Caden and Addison while I visited with a sweet family! When I came home I smiled when I saw AdEliz on a tricycle! She loved it!

It's Pet Week at Frist Baptist...

and Caden has been begging me to take Emma to school to share with her friends. I wasn't so convinced. Daddy saved the day and helped out this morning. He got the kids up and dressed and mostly out the door before I even came downstairs. All I had to do was put Addison in the car...I could really get used to that! (He even pumped my gas so I didn't have to stand in the cold! Again, I could REALLY get used to him being home in the morning!) Caden loved having Emma at school. He showed his friends how she shakes and told his friends all about emma! He said she likes to run and chase things! Oh...and that she had gas in the "boys car" on the way to school and they had to put the window down! Emma was well behaved and enjoyed herself as well! The picture above is Caden listening to his friends questions about Emma!!

Storytime

This morning I took Caden and Addison to storytime at the library! Caden grabbed his mats and headed up front! He really enjoyed listening to the stories and did a great job sitting up there all by himself! This mornings stories were about snow! They're saying we may get some this weekend! Addison and I hung out at the back of the room and she walked around most of the time. Until they started to sing songs then she'd look around and try to do the movements! Here's a picture of her when she realized they were singing! At school they say music is one of her favorite parts of the day!
