building towers

of course building towers is fun for all, fun for the littlest and her big brother, for sure. because of a lot of hard rain, lots of sundays afternoon was spent indoors. joel got the fire started and then the playing and resting and enjoying was lived in full. this is how sunday afternoons can be spent. lounging and working and playing and loving the time together.

of course it was not all peaceful and wonderful harmony, with 6 people in the living room it was loud, it was rambunctious and tumultuous and we had to find our way with each other. but isn't it that, what builds strong families? i do believe so. it is so very important to have these moments of figuring out how we work with each other, how much space each of us needs and lets the others have. this definitely builds character, at least i do hope so!
