Order In Chaos

Today is…Tuesday Mar 22 2011

Play Date!

Don’t worry, Ettin cheered up pretty quick:

Galoot played with a princess:

And mommy went Visiting Teaching while her awesome friend watched a bunch of kids.

After lunch, I took some time to read about Temples. I shared some thoughts with Giant, and the spirit in our home became very peaceful…

…in spite of the abundant Chaos:

In fact, Giant even commented, “Your house is nice peace. Peace and quiet.”

Then he called me Princess Keeah (a character from the Droon series Daddy is reading the boys), and I remained Princess Keeah until suppertime.

I continued to read the Temple book a bit as I helped Giant write up the ingredients list for cornbread:

“We’re making yummy cornbread, right Keeah?”

And got it ready:

I love homeschooling that also gets supper ready!

Giant drew some pictures of me (Princess Keeah, in case you’ve forgotten):

And he also built a really cool contraption.

I’m not sure he knew how cool it actually was…but let me see if I can describe it:

By turning the wheels on one side of the car(?), it rotated the left and right platforms up and down, like feet stepping:

Both the upper and lower platforms were set up in this way. Very neat.

Then it was taken apart to become ice-cream cones 🙂  (Which is why I take pictures!)

To finish off the night, we went to Giant’s gymnastics presentation:

Hooray Giant!
