Learning about fire!
This past week Carter has been learning about fires and what your suppose to do when there is one at your house. He came home from school and was so excited he was telling us all about what he learned ( we go through this lots of times with our kids at our house but I guess since I am not in a fireman outfit it doesn't sink in :)) he was telling Emma where we are suppose to meet at. This is something I pray daily about that we never have to go through this ordeal. I always always tell our kids to never come find us but we also live in a trailer house and the windows are not the easiest things to open I have a hard time so I know my kids will never be able to open them so we have fire bats that are placed by their bed and we tell them to bust their windows out with that and help each other out well I guess this part Carter did listen to because it had to do with his baseball bat so as I am listening to him talk to Emma and was telling her what she needed to do if there was a fire I couldn't help but smile. As I was tucking Emma into bed one night I asked her why she had a bat by her bed and she looked at me and shrugged her shoulders and said Carter put it there for me in case there is a fire I will be able to get out....WOW!! I was so happy to hear this I always worry about Justin and I teaching our kids the right things and this just showed me that yes we are. Our kids really do love each other and care about each other even when they are fighting. Thank you GOD for showing me this simple act of kindness shown by my kids.

Oh my gosh, so sweet. I keep telling adam we need those window ladders now that we're in a two story. He thinks I'm crazy.
