Amazing Airport Adventure

Today I took the Tiny Toes on a field trip to the airport with my MOMS group. 

  They could not wait to see the airplanes. 

We learned about the parts of the airplane.  Did you know they have a nose and tail?

We felt excited when we had the opportunity to walk inside the MTSU

airplane. 

Elizabeth:  Oh my goodness!

Hendley:  This is so amazin'!

Mary Ellis: I'm going to fly this plane!

Elizabeth had her eyes on the sky!

Hendley Grace decided she would take charge of the control panel.

Mary Ellis fell into a state of bliss like nothing I had ever before witnessed.  Following this photograph the tour guide said, "Ok, it's time to go."  At this point, Mary Ellis threw herself onto the ground and started to scream.  She continued to scream and cry for several minutes.  She continued to scream and cry when we left the plane.  She continued to scream and cry when we walked to the car.  She continued to scream and cry when we drove home.  Suddenly, she fell silent.  15 minutes passed.  Then, she spoke.  "Mommy, when I grow up I am going to be a pilot," she stated. 

Mary Ellis recaps.

Elizabeth shares.

We had a wonderful day.

Fun on the Farm

Some days just make you want to happy dance.  Thursday was a happy dance day. We took The Trifecta to Lucky Ladd Farms. 

We fed the hens, baby chicks, goats, and the llama! 

 

Sometimes when you feed animals you just have to throw food at them.

By FAR the best part of the day involved a very large slide and a playground of fun.

My voice resembles shrieks of death, but it's just because I felt happy.

I love this girl.

Sometimes you have to chicken dance.

I am so thankful for my Tiny Toes Trifecta.

Lessons

I love picking The Trifecta up from Sunday School.  Chris and I usually spend the hour camped outside the door, peaking in the window and listening for their cries.  Because we are crazy, that’s why.

When the hour comes to an end their saint of a teacher and her assistant line them up at the door, pray with them, and then unleash them into the hallway. 

They scream, “MOMMY!  DADDY!” and begin their routine of sharing.  Hendley begins by reporting those who “were not makin’ good choices.”  Elizabeth follows with the snack synopsis.  Mary Ellis needs a minute to snuggle.

“What did you learn about today?” Chris asked this past Sunday.  “Heewing,” Mary Ellis replied. “Peter and John went to the temple to pway,” Hendley shared.
“They healed the name man! He couldn’t walk!” Elizabeth exclaimed. “Day were jumpin’ da air!” added Hendley.

In case you didn't get that, Mary Ellis told me about the man who was sick and couldn't walk (The "name" man, aka, the lame man). When Peter and John saw the man he asked them for money. Hendley told me that the man got something better than money. 

It made we really happy to hear them talk about what they learned.  Their lessons teach me too.

Jesus gave Peter and John the ability to heal the man in His name.  He still performs miracles today.  Look at The Tiny Toes Trifecta!  If their conception and delivery don't amaze you, keep in mind they weighed about 3 pounds a pop at birth. 

Everything good in my life has come from Jesus.  To each person reading this blog, it is my prayer that if you have a boo-boo, whether it is emotional or physical, God will heal you too.

With God all things are possible!
