Banyan Tree Climbing













We've been honoring this beautiful season by being outside more. Climbing banyan trees has become our breakthrough summer school activity. This tree was too challenging to climb last year, and now it has become a perfect jungle gym. Govinda has been wanting to climb a lot lately, and since the porch and doorways aren't the safest, we have been practicing on the 'Great Banyan Tree' in our backyard's enchanted forest every morning and afternoon. We have been so amazed by the beautiful trees lately that it may spin off into a native plant study. Summer is such a season of flourishing beauty!

Thank you to everyone who checks in to this blog and cares for us. We are always appreciating well wishes and wish the same for everyone. Take care and God Bless!

Chalkboard Making







Finally, here's some pictures of the boys. I have been so busy lately, it's hard to remember to grab the camera. But these early childhood days go so fast, I love looking back at old pictures. Summer is kicking in and the boys have been demanding all of my attention lately...time seems to be going faster nowadays. Sorry, I can't figure out how to center the pictures...they have reset themselves to be like this. My computer time these days is very short.

The one thing I really wanted for my birthday was a chalkboard. When I looked into it, I could get 3 or 4 chalkboards for the price of one if we made it ourselves with chalkboard paint. So, it is a fun project for the whole family. The paint can turn any surface into a chalkboard. First, we cut the corners and sanded all the edges, then painted it. We have 2 more big ones and 3 small ones left to do as we have time.

Thank you, everyone, for caring for us and being patient when I'm a lazy blogger. Take care and God Bless!

Easter Treasure Hunt

For Easter, we read the story of Jesus rising again and then celebrated with hidden plastic eggs filled with healthy treats and money. The boys had a lot of fun. Here's some pictures. I will post more later as well.

Christmas Pictures!

There's nothing like watching kids on Christmas! I hope these pictures can recapture the joy and gratitude we feel for everyone who loves and cares for us. For those of you who were so kind to send money, we truly appreciate it, and pictures of what it is spent on will come later. The boys send many, many thanks for all of their new toys and gifts to come. I pray for the day when all children around the world can be so fortunate. Thank you again and again!
