In your presence is fullness of joy and at your right hand are pleasures for evermore.
Delight yourself in the Lord.

Double Trouble

A couple of weeks ago, Jacob came in and asked me if I heard him screaming outside. I said no, because all of the windows were shut. Well he and Shelby got this great idea to climb up in the apple tree in the backyard and try to knock the squirrel nest out of it. They had thrown apples at it first to scare any sleeping squirrel that might be in it. They took a really long stick (thank goodness) and pushed it up from the bottom and guess what - that squirrel finally came flying out of that nest and just missed Jacob's head before scrambling away.

Well I had the window cracked today because they were outside again after school and I felt bad about my child screaming before and not hearing him. So low an behold, I look outside the kitchen window and they were at it again. You can see the nest at the top. And this was after I had explained rabies shots the time before to Jacob. He said the stick got stuck in the tree this time. That poor squirrel should leave while the leavings good. I'm just glad we didn't have to make a trip to the ER with a broken arm.
