Crew Martin: Summer Days

Just some random fun with the kids during these summer days. Justin got some cute shots of them getting ready for bed. They all sleep in those triple bunk beds, only they only sleep in two of the three beds. Two kids per bed! So funny.

We've been swimming a lot, picnics outside during breaks from the pool...Thank goodness for the water so they can stay wet in the 115 degree weather.

Also...Guess who's crawling? Yep, Westin is 7 months old and official scooting on his belly and raising up onto his feet. He doesn't quite have the hand and knee action yet, but he moves around the house like crazy. Belly flopping all the way!

I just LOVE these kiddos of mine!

Picnic inside in mom's room.

Quotes About Motherhood

A Prayer for Womanhood God, give each true good woman Her own small house to keep, No heart should ache with longing, No hurt should go too deep..... Grant her age-old desire: A house to love and sweep. Give her a man beside her, A kind man, and a true, And let them work together And love, a lifetime through, And let her mother children As gentle women do. Give her a shelf for dishes, And a shining box for bread, A white cloth for her table, And a white spread for her bed, A shaded lamp at nightfall, And a row of books much read. God, let her work with laughter, And let her rest with sleep. No life can truly offer A peace more sure and deep.... God, give each true woman Her own small house to keep ~Grace Noll Crowell~ ~~~~~~1934~~~~~~

And that is our privilege as mothers – to rear Godly men and women to influence the world for God.

"I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life." Abraham Lincoln

"The joys of motherhood are rare and beautiful treasures that can be easily missed if we don't seize the opportunity to grab them." Ginger Plowman

"My mother was the making of me. She was so true, so sure of mw; and I felt that I had someone to live for; someone I must not disappoint." Thomas Edison
