The girls breathing while getting in tune with the natural rythms of the body process. Anna does yoga almost every day -- all on her own (w/ VHS tape assistance), and on this day Bay joined her.
A toad's new home. When Chad removed a pile of large branches from the center of the yard, a toad lost his niche and was vulnerable to our lab-mix, Bogey. After a long time of unsuccessful attempts by the boys to encourage Mr. Toad to hop toward safety, Hunter finally picked him up and deposited him in a large, lush bed of foliage beyond the reach of the dog.
And because I would like more moments like these and far less bickering, mess-leaving-behind-ing, whining, complaining, and other thoughtless behaviors, I've cancelled all electronics (including tv and movies, except the yoga tape) until at least Monday. In the past, this unplugging has done true wonders for Hunter and Baylor to find their brains as well as the mental energy for thoughtfulness (kindness, awareness, helping, positive attitudes...). "Oh, Mo-ommmm."
