Wordless Wednesday - Kissing Hand

And away he goes!

Samuel had a great first day of Kindergarten! He enjoyed showing Emma his classroom, cubby, and desk. As soon as this new friend showed up he was ready to say goodbye. This is gonna be a great year for Sam!

"More knowledge, more power!" - Samuel

Thank heavens for Emmalyn!

It's easy to understand why her sister insists on taking her everywhere. She brightens the darkest of times. When you think a task is impossible, she turns your thoughts hopeful! When you're anxious, hold her, and she fills you with calm. When you're crying, she'll smile and dry your tears. 

Watch her excitement as she plays the day filled with fun and laughter. Emma is pure sunshine. When the rain comes, she lights the dark with her rainbows!

Sam - "Can you give a dream?"

Sam has found a new hobby collecting "electronic components!" It's so endearing hearing my 6 year old say such big words. This big mess gave me a great idea for last nights dream.

One day you and Emma were outside playing (chasing chickens) when out of the sky a small space ship crashed landed in our backyard! You were a very scared, but Emma was curious and went to go investigate. As she was tapping on the ship, the top lifted up and out popped a tiny alien. "Awe he's so cute," Emma squealed. You didn't think so, you were still scared. But then he spoke. "Don't be scared, I was watching you guys from way up there," he said pointing to the sky. "I just wanted to come and play too."

All afternoon the three of you played. You showed him all of your toys and tools.  And Emma discovered that aliens are really good at ridding chickens. You all were having so much fun laughing and playing that time slipped by fast. The sunlight started fading, and the moon shown brighter. The little alien, Chicken Rider (Sam named him) said he had to go home to his mom and dad. "That's where I live," he pointed to a star. "Hey that's the second star to the right, are you neighbors with Peter Pan?" Chicken Rider looked at you baffled.

You guys all said your goodbyes. Chicken Rider climbed in his ship, waved goodbye, and closed the top hatch. You and Emma waited in anticipation to see the ship fly, but nothing happened. Chicken Rider hopped out, and started to cry. "My ship is broken, how will I get home now?"

You knew just what to do! Running inside you yelled, "I'll be right back!" You grabbed your bag of electronic components and tools then ran back outside. "I'm gonna fix your ship!" And you did just that!

You were so proud as you watched the ship fly off into the night. Emma yelled, "bye, bye, wuv you!" You hoped that someday he would come back again to play. Maybe even tomorrow!
