playing with friends


We've been having some beautiful fall weather here and there.  Isaac and James have some great playmates up the street and we play with them almost every day.














Unfortunately I am running short on patience.  This week has been very trying with the kids sick with ear infections and whiny and I am getting so bad with Isaac's questions.  I pray for patience to answer Isaac's questions every night.  Every day he asks so many questions, so many whys, so many things that are hard to explain or that I don't know the answer to.  Why did the bells stop ringing?  Why is that guy doing that?  A tree fell down on the path, when are the guys going to take it to the wood chipper?  Why do the guys dump leaves in our backyard instead of throwing them in the garbage?  What do fish eat?  Do turtles have teeth?  Why mom why?
