Since my current support level is way below that of the poverty line and my kids like to eat every day, Laurel is currently picking up about 2 days a week with her nursing job and I am staying at home on those two days to take care of the kids. It is somewhat of a challenge for me because I'm not really cut out to be a "stay at home Dad" but it is also a joy to get to spend extra time with the kids while they are small. In addition to pulling my hair out on some days, I also laugh and smile a lot at the things that they do and the memories we are making.
One smile I got last week was from the "rose bowl parade" which took place in our living room. As you can see in the picture below, Rose grabbed a bowl from the kitchen, put it on her head and proceeded to parade around the house humming a happy tune.

I can relate on so many levels to your post!! The trials of the stay at home parent. :) Rose is such a lil sweetie pie. Just think you wouldn't have this cute story if you weren't at home. Thanks for sharing this wonderful story.
I am honored to be sharing extra in their lives right now. It is a lot of fun in so many ways. But we are also finding that Laurel and I are both operating under more stress right now, as she is at work instead of at home, and I am at home instead of at work. I'm sure God will work it all out in time and until then, we try to be flexible and I try to enjoy and pass on stories like this one.
