"The fundamental mission of motherhood now is the same as it always was: to nurture, protect, and instruct children, to create a home environment that enables them to learn and grow, to help them develop a heart for God and his purposes, and to send them out into the world prepared to live both fully and meaningfully."

-Sally Clarkson from the Mission of Motherhood

Enjoying Spring

Just a few snapshots from our activities this spring. It's been a busy one!
Having a tea party with Gigi (and Samantha)Clark went to the zoo with his buddies Griffin and Mase to celebrate Mase's first birthday!! We had such a fun outing just with the boys!
Thanks to Mrs. Kimberly for snapping some pics for us!
Sweetheart...
It was extremely humid that day. Clarky had perfect ringlets! :)
Mama and son
AnnMarie had her first choir performance at church.
It was pretty low key since it was the first year (three year olds). She seems so "old" to me when we're at home, but when I look at this picture, they all look so young!
Now wouldn't this be a cute rehearsal dinner picture??? I would be just fine with this match up. :)

AnnMarie and Charley
We went to Midland and celebrated Sean's birthday with the SvobodasWe went to cousin Madison's dance recital. Scary costume? Yes, but it was a dance to Thriller!
(AnnMarie was a little nervous about being near her favorite cousin looking this way!)
(Iphone pic--sorry) Clarky tried to drive the golf cart with sweet big sister helping.
And the fun continues!
