Life with children means

My walls became an art canvas
My arms became a cradle
My spit became hair gel
My computer chair became a sit and spin
My keys became lost
My counter tops became a ladder
My cell phone became a toy
My bed became a trampoline
My vase became broken
My tub became a kiddie pool
My tree became a tree house
My life became a photo shoot
My movie quotes became Disney
My shirt became a burp rag
My kitchen became a school room
My hip became a stool
My boobs became bottles
My refrigerator became an art gallery
My windows became a finger print station
My yard became a playground
My car became a van
My heart became full
My life became whole
Laughter became music
Thank you Lord for these Children in my life~
Ps~ I have missed you all the past two days.
We have been very busy around the homestead painting, simplifying and preparing our garden.
I can not wait to share with you just whats been going on around here~
Those of you that picked spray painting frames on last weeks post YOUR RIGHT!
Here's what I was up to, framing the girls art work for their room~
What do you think?

This is a super fun post! Loving it! The wall of art is amazing too! The girls are always wanted to display their art work and so for Valentine's Day I got them each a canvis to paint for Daddy so we can hang them and enjoy them everyday! We definately need a framed art wall in the house!
