He is ALIVE

WOW here it is Easter Sunday and we have so much to be thankful for!

HE IS ALIVE and lives in us !!!!! I had a blessed day with family and friends I have lots to tell and don't know where to start. As I was gone a week ago and went to a conference it was amazing and how learning different things with children there are some things that I will share more about the one thing that come to mind is that our children need to be more creative and use there imagination. Wow to she kids not explore with in there own minds and go different places and have fun I think that is something I am going to challenge you all to do something with your children like you use to or start something new!!!

Kids playing in Easter grass and edible grass too!!!

Here is something that I would like to do with my family and teach my older children to always stay young at heart!!!! Hide a certain item and see who can find it and leave it with a message. This is what I did for an example..... I took a little pokey (horse from gumby) and wrote a note on it and hide it for my hubby and left a note attached to explain that this is a new thing in our home to lift the spirits or just because...so he found it in his coat pocket and so he hide it in my daughters Easter egg and now she has it and will do the same . So who is up to finding the kid at heart I love it and want to encourage you to take this fun idea and go with it in your home.

The other thing that was a blast was learning deals with puppets and music. Simple music out of kitchen utensils gotta love that huh!!! ONLY FOR A WHILE!

As my conference came to an end and back to work the next day the week was super long but that is ok .... the two sweet little children that had bless my heart and soul for about six weeks went back to family and so it was a sad Friday!

Our chicks at work will be hatching this week and the children are soo excited me too!!!!!!

What a week

Pray..... Our little grandson has been in the hospital since Thursday and is pretty sick poor little guy! Wow where do I start things are really going here at the Huff house. My husband has been out of a job for 8 months or so and so things are tight but I have to say that the LORD is awesome ! All of our needs have been meet by HIM!!!! This week at work I have been so blessed I started the incubator again at school with 7 eggs in it and they are ready for the BIG count down!!! How much fun it that to see the excitement in their faces!!! I took some time to get some Round Robin Journal writing last night! I will share about this more later!!! Will share more later...... Later had finally came .... after spending some quite time and enjoying the rainy morning . I took some time to write on the RR Journal and then .......tried to get caught up with some laundry and things because I will be leaving town for a week....Time to regroup!!!! I have been working on writing a curriculum that I will use this summer for the school age children at Daycare and it is called the Adventures of Summer so we are as a group will be traveling around to different states~~~ So I am looking for some fun things from different states along with post cards, maps if you are interested in sharing let me kn know!

As had a long night with grandson staying the night ~~~Just out of his routine and not at home we love when he comes to stay with us he is such a blessing to us! Not feeling good so he is napping and I want to get this done while it is so fresh in my heart!

I want to start this yesterday but did not work so here we are on a blessed SONDAY(as my friend puts) and I love it! The weather was sooo nice yesterday almost 70 and really enjoyed the day!!! Dan had went and took AB and MHH (foster children ) to the park and they had such a great time running and playing while LaNaya and her friend Maddy went out for a drive on a hunt for some springy pictures to share! So to start of we went to a little town of population may 60 or so to see if we can see the bald eagle that is nesting up there but no such luck on that~~~~but we found other things!

As we left Sturgis there is an old train station so I stop to take some fun pictures of the girls!!! LaNaya will be celebrating her Birthday tomorrow!!!!

I have some pictures that I have posted to share hope you all enjoy them too.

I have been spending some time reading the sweet book from my dear friend and Author Cindy Woodsmall and Miriam Flaud of Plain Wisdom !!! The book as really touched my heart in many ways as I have only read half of the book!!! If you see get it and read it there are some fun recipes in there as well as the stories told from and Older Amish ways and Englischers ways.

Many Blessings....

As the week started last week we have been busy with classes and of course just the stuff of the world. April Fools day came with two jokes that I was like are you serious now both of th em played on me by our 13 year old daughter~~~ I do have to tell this one she had some friends over to share her birthday which is Monday and so anyway they wanted tog o for a walk and I had now problem with that she went to climb this hill behind our house and on the hill there is the words STURGIS on it the name of our town. So Dan told them that they needed to be home by 8:30 because it would be getting dark soon and so off they went . I sat and was enjoying the quietness of the house after kids with colds at work and flu going around just an aw moment. My phone rang I picked it up and it was LaNaya she was crying and tell me she was lost and her and her friends were playing hide and seek and I was in a panic oh my goodness how do I even get where they went and my response to her was to have her talk to her dad and with laughter and a GOTCHA APRIL FOOLS I thought oh thank goodness!!!!! I will be back I am on the hunt for some picture taking for a while will be back later!.......We are so blessed just enjoy the air we breathe and the LOVE of HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
