Luke stuff

Luke is growing up.  His vocabulary is large.  He loves to have conversations with people.  His little mind is always working.  This morning he came out of his room and said to me "Mom, I just turned my light off.  I turned it on for a little bit, then I just turned it off.  Because it costs money to have the lights on."  My little guy.  Love him for listening and obeying, turning off his light on his own without me having to ask, and making the correlation (or even if he is just repeating what I say) that it costs money to have the lights on.

A few days ago we were reading a Busytown book about 'everyone being a worker.'  The book asked "What does your dad do?"  So I asked Luke that question and he said,

"I don't know.  Tell me."  


Me:  No, you know.  Where does daddy work?
Luke:  Rambow!
Me:  Yep.  What does he do there?
Luke:  I don't know.  Tell me."
Me:  He sells clothes.  Now, (reading the book) What does your mommy do?
Luke:  I don't know.  Tell me.
Me:  No, you tell me.
Luke:  Sells clothes.
Me:  No, silly!  Your daddy sells clothes.  What do I do?
Luke:  You wash clothes.


Good call, Lukey.  Daddy sells clothes.  Mommy washes clothes.  :)

Milestones

All three of my little babes are meeting milestones like crazy this summer.  Let's start with the oldest of the crew - Mr. Luke Ervin: Milestones of note for LUKE : 1. Biking (previously mentioned in a blog post) 2. Swimming without a lifejacket, in the deep end.  Diving, cannon-balling, sommer-saulting, 360'ing off the diving board, and more.  He is amazing!  Just a month ago he wouldn't jump in the shallow end of the pool and get his face wet.  We are extremely amazed at and proud of him.  The picture below is from the auqatic center in Willmar...since the time of this picture he has completely stopped needing a life jacket but I wanted to add this picture b/c it's so cool. 3.  Teeball'ing as a switch hitter; catching a baseball like never before.  One day he hits right handed, the next left.  What will he be???  We've determined he will just be a switch hitter!  We are so proud of him for playing and improving and enjoying this game on his

What a year....2020

 My posts these days are few and far between.  Maybe it's because life is busy.  Or because I'm working more.  Or because, as always, I find it hard to keep up with all the moments that I want to etch in my memory and so I get overwhelmed trying to document them here.  Or maybe, just maybe, it could have something to do with 2020 being an absolutely wild and unprecedented year!  Despite it all, we are thriving, still smiling, still laughing, still fighting (I guess a lack of fighting would be cause for concern among 3 kids, right?), and we are definitely still counting our blessings.  My friend Julie and I say multiple times a day "Jesus take the wheel."  :)   Spring 2020 quarantine couldn't have been more awesome.  The weather was gorgeous, the kids were thrilled to be home and playing outside, and we spent almost everyday clearing out our woods, burning (my favorite past time, as many people know), and golfing in our yard and at the course.  Ben spent hours on t
