Too often I wish for the future more self-sufficient days, but truly so much would be missed.<br /><br />Every time I stop by to check out what you are doing, I'm amazed at how many projects you all have going on. You are doing a wonderful job with those beautiful kids!loribhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13201078997297459344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6293021585820584668.post-10964893530005674572010-06-24T16:48:40.921-05:002010-06-24T16:48:40.921-05:00A time to kill and a time to die... that's wha...A time to kill and a time to die... that's what my wife said to me last night! Seriously, T looks like he just grew up soo much in 7 days. Hope you have a fun reunion.

Or how nice it will be one of these days when the girls can play in the blowup pool without me setting right there waiting to save the drowning 1 year old. Or maybe just go to the bathroom by myself. But your post reminded me to savor the age that they are at right now, because I won't get it back and they are growing up so fast. We have enjoyed seeing Cami at daycare this week! Have a great summer!The Murphy'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09564899373307763407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6293021585820584668.post-53688869217142393442010-06-23T19:40:21.574-05:002010-06-23T19:40:21.574-05:00I sure do hear what you're saying. :) So awe...I sure do hear what you're saying. :) So awesome to see these kids doing things as they grow up ... but it does mean just that ... they're GROWING UP! It is AWESOME, though. So wonderful to see opportunities come along and they tackle them! :) I'm looking forward to seeing pics of your new deck table, that sounds really neat! Yeah, I guess the fair up there isn't very far off, is it? I miss that, but watch for stuff in the paper from up there. :) Have a good rest of the week!Rhondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11379966486917936027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6293021585820584668.post-56274570604596355422010-06-23T12:58:49.779-05:002010-06-23T12:58:49.779-05:00Wow, T looks so grown up in that picture.

You do a good job of teaching your kids the important lessons in life. Could my kids come spend the rest of the summer with you so that you can rub off on them, too?<br /><br />KristiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6293021585820584668.post-44463899954043872672010-06-23T08:29:53.174-05:002010-06-23T08:29:53.174-05:00I see you're already the proud mama but I'...I see you're already the proud mama but I'll say it anyway--what great young people you are raising! Continue to beam with pride. <br />It's obvious they are really enjoying their projects.

Thank you for posting them. My children have grown, flown, and with one now trying to re-settle after change on top of change...let's just say that a momma's heart swells with pride, dances with joy, and totally breaks with pain for a child when Mom can't "fix it". God's word soothes once again. I enjoy seeing the young men that you & J are raising. Great job. <br />Cindy OAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6293021585820584668.post-46697415686728627262010-06-23T07:00:51.535-05:002010-06-23T07:00:51.535-05:00*sniff* T really looks manly in those pictures.

They usually involve me saying something about us having more kids, where at the exact same time, D is whooping for joy about us almost being done! hehe <br />I really miss your kids!!
