fly away home...

our precious baby robin friends have finally fled their nest...nature lesson concluded. coleman drew this pic in honor of their arrival and new life beyond our home! it is quite amazing how the christian perspective on this and life itself is so much easier to explain to my children with this "hands on" lesson. it honestly causes me to ponder how anyone could doubt the utter wonder of GOD!

season finale




hampton completed her final tiny tutu dance class of the season...it was observation day, so coleman was able to watch hampton in all her glory right beside me! he videotaped the entire class...and yes, i mean each and every little dancer in hampton's class, for the entire hour! thanks, buddy! hampton relished in a bit of the routine, however, enjoyed even more, the additions of costume and makeup, as mrs. sydney applied makeup, and encouraged them to dress in the many costume selections available! absolutely adorable, as always! hampton will actually take part in the production next year in the tap and ballet combo class. yeah! it has been unbelievably amazing to experience hampton's ballet skill maturation, in addition to recognizing her true love of dance itself! what a joy!
