Winter Wonderland

There has been no wind to knock the snow from each and every branch of each and every tree. I would have loved to have gone outside today, but i will wait until tomorrow to play with Jaely outside. Today, I got to hang out with Camryn (chasing her and being chased by her, pulling her down from whatever she climbs on, and watch her comb her hair repeatedly with every combing utensil we have in the house). Since i stayed inside with Cami, the pictures below are taken through the window and screen to try to capture the winter wonderland that Jaelynne and Nammy were playing in. It looked like a lot of fun!

From what Jaely told me, they knocked snow off of the branches to help the trees. Then they sat on the "winter couch" and told stories to one another. Nammy spoke of princess and dragons.







Jaely discovered me and Camryn looking out the window.

Winter Couch
After lunch and rest time, Jaely wanted to read many books. I love how Camryn is kickin' back in her chair listening in.Jaely cuddled up reading books.




I got tears in my eyes as i watched everyone sing along and dance to "If i were a Butterfly." Camryn was trying to do the movements and Jaely's sweet little voice would sing the chorus. Nammy's love for her granddaughters was so evident as seen by the smile and joy on her face. What a wonderful moment that i will remember for a very long time.
"He made me a baby and He called me His child. . ."
"If i were a fuzzy, wuzzy bear. . ."
"If i were a crocodile. . . "
"I'd thank the Lord for my big smile. . . " (I think Cami is singing, "I put my hand up in the air sometimes. . . ")
Jaely wanted to play dress-up with Nammy, so the three of them went into Jaely's room and even dressed Camryn in a tu-tu. Jaelynne shared her Nammy very well today.





I LOVE what her big butt does to the tu-tu.
