This is the true meaning of a story board. Alone these pictures don't mean too much, but as a collection, they tell a story. And I'll share the story with you...
The middle picture is actually the first, I heard rain outside today and opened my front door and this was the view I had. The beautiful rainbow with the dark sky, but it was still sunny right outside my door. It was awesome! I decided to let my kids play in the rain (since this is one of my FAVORITE things to do, and I want them to love it as well).
My kids were wearing the pjs, they hadn't changed from the night before. My son loves this shirt that we are borrowing from his grandma. On the back of his shirt is one of those creatures that are half man/half horse. The creature is bare chested and has a long pony tail, and apparently looks a lot like Jesus (in my son's mind). So when he wear this shirt he tells everyone that he's wearing his Jesus shirt, or in his words "My Jesus on my back". I actually think the picture on the left looks like he belongs to some cult. The other reason I like the picture on the left is because he's holding his crackers. He's not happy with just a couple crackers, he wants to carry around the whole package, and he'll eat almost all of it too. And one more things about the picture, I love the foliage in the background. The neighbors house above us has the beautiful garden and it flow over their wall into our parking lot. We get to see these beautiful jasmine plants and smell them as well. A few weeks ago their honeysuckle plant was in bloom and we got to teach the kids how to suck the sweet nectar out of them. We are moving in a few weeks and I will miss that beautiful wall.
The last picture (the one on the right) is beacause I love his eyes. Also, you can see he has jam on his face still from dinner, and you can see rain drops on his shirt and his forehead.
It was definately a chill day, but was completed with a beautiful rainbow and a summer shower!
And not paying attention to my son. He snuck into some Hot Tamales, and then ripped the tags of his sister's shirt and stuck them on his head. Then he climbed up on the bed, and said "take picture me." My daughter and me definitely giggled once we saw this precious face.
At church he was looking at a picture of Jesus Christ sitting with children. I asked him what Jesus said to the children and he answered very seriously, "Oink, Oink" :) Needless to say, we weren't very reverent in church after that cute answer.
I thought the 2 sickies were snuggling together, but here's my little monster wandering downstairs with chips all over his face. I guess Daddy got tired and just let him be unsupervised for awhile. That's why he's smiling a little bit in the picture-even though he's sick, he got CHIPS! and I think a sucker too.
Well I'll tell you, it was a momentous day in our home!!! We like to celebrate Christmas all year (or we are just plain LAZY, you can decide) so we have had part of our nativity set up. Yesterday I decided to pack them all away. They were the last of our Christmas decorations up, so we now are season free in our home :)
And then some princesses showed up. Can you tell which ones they are?
SIDE NOTE: If you look at the picture in the previous post, compare the 2 girls on each end in both pictures. They are the same people :)
ANSWER: Dress like boys and go to the movies!!!
