To wash or not to wash?

This picture may be a little confusing. And if it is clear to you, than you are probably wondering why I hesitate to wash it! What the picture does not show you is the swirly designs M drew with a banana when I was gone one morning. That's on the inside. Her muddy handprints are on the outside, and they are so sweet! My precious girl is growing up so fast. I know next time I turn around she will be driving off to prom or college. So I really try to cherish her childhood-even if it is a little grimy...

We did a couple activities to pass the rainy day time. We made oodles of Easter cookies:


We also had several weather reports:


(you may think you are looking at M holding a quilting mat, but what you are really seeing is the weather lady giving us a forecast on her map).
Thankfully, our kind Father in Heaven kept this trailer on the ground once again and we were safe from the storm. We are ever grateful for his watchful hand over us.
