It's a Germany Day

It's raining cats and dogs.  Mom and I always call days like this Germany days, because they remind us of our stint in Bavaria.  But I'm not complaining.  It's a wonderful change from sunshine, forces us to relax and take care of inside business, is great sleeping weather, and washes the world clean again.  Reminds me of Jesus and how his blood washes us clean of all our ugliness and sin ... revealing a clean, refreshed new creation.  And that's just not a one-time deal: "the steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfullness."  ~Lamentations 3:22-23

Proof That We're Sick

In accordance with things that Aiden wants (or doesn't want!) to do, he is either "sick again" or "feewin' awl better!".  Ashton and I do not have that luxury: we are definitely sick.  I'd post a pic of me, but no one really needs to see me in this state of no-makeup and stuffiness. 

Such a sad, I-don't-feel-well face!

Does the mess and boy-wiping-nose-with-shirt say it all or what?!
