Presence

These kids have had a lot of presents lateley but not much presence from their mommy.  Days with a lot of getting away without manners, etc. while Grandma Jo and Pa were visiting have compounded and we are now retrieving our children from the depths of naughtiness!

I am attempting an entire day filled with presence for these little ones. 

We started this morning with a "porridge picinic"

.... off to get some paints ready for a painting marathon!!
