Welcome to our adventures. I try as best as I can to document the happenings here in our family - everything from the shenanigans to the spiritual, from the kid to the kitchen, from the cat to the catastrophes. We believe that adventure can be found in everything we do...even in the mundane tasks of the day. When we set our minds on things above in gratitude to God, we find the strength to approach life with a sense of purpose & adventure. The adventure may not always be what we have planned...but isn't that what adventure is all about?

Other Stuff We Do

Today while at the Aquarium, Abby and I took a trip to the ladies room. As in most bathrooms, there was a line. As Abby and I waited, we watched a Mom with her daughter (I'm guessing the girl was about 3). Clearly the child had a cold and her Mom was using the paper towels in the bathroom to wash her face. At one point, the Mom wadded up the paper by her nose and said, "blow, honey" - and the little girl proceeded to give a good, hearty blow (complete with leg lift). Her Mom took a look at the results and said, "great job".

I know I was quite impressed because it was hard trying to teach Abby to blow OUT her nose (and she only just recently mastered it). I looked down at Abby to see if she saw the impressively executed blow. At the same time I looked down at Abby she looked up at me and raised her brows and with a delivery tone that I can't possibly articulate said, "wow...she can sure blow". You probably had to be there.
