Wednesday Buddies

A few weeks ago a good friend of mine from the church whose kids are great friends with Madeline and Ella proposed that we start a little co-op so that she and I can have some time to go run errands without kids, or just go read a book and have some time to ourselves.  So while one of us goes to do that the other hangs out with all the kids which they all LOVE!  Madeline and Tirzah especially are good friends, when we are at church and they see each other they will yell each other's name out from across the room.  It's so sweet to see their little friendship grow even from such an early age.  Rebekah (Tirzah and Jude's mom) told me that one morning during Sunday School it was time for them to pray before their snacks and just as they were starting Tirzah popped her head up, located Madeline and ran over to sit next to her while they prayed.  It's so sweet to think that at even such an early age they have a little prayer sister.  It will be fun to see all of their friendships grow as we get to continue to spend time with one another and I know Rebekah and I both are so thankful to have this one morning every two weeks to get some time to ourselves.

Ella, Jude, Tirzah and Madeline

YEA!!! That's the same reason I started my blog--it's so much easier than emailing pictures out to everyone and I can write as little or as much about them as I want! :)

What a cool idea to get some time to yourself and allow the kids to spend time together.
