Deuteronomy 11:18-19

18 Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. 19 Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

Deuteronomy 11:18-19

Tenting :) ~In The Yard~


With the weather co operating the kids decided to sleep out in their tents. J wanted to sleep alone in his and it was decided that L, E and R would sleep together in L's tent. They started out a bit later to bed then normal and Papa and I checked them several times. I went out at about 11 pm, still light here, and found the girls had jumped into J's tent and L was sleeping alone.. or at least laying in his sleeping bag in his tent alone. The girls informed me they'd gotten scared and needed their biggest brother to 'keep them safe.' Less then 50 feet from the house :) SO I decided they'd all sleep in the same tent and got them all ready, yet again, for bed. This time they went to sleep rather fast and slept until 4:30am when L, E and R got cold and came inside. J3 was sleeping out of his bed that night too. He was fast asleep in R's bottom bunk so the girls climbed into J's bed and L climbed into his own bed and everyone slept until 10am :) When the other kids went inside to warm up J went back into his tent and slept alone there until 10. 


They had a blast tenting in the yard. J still talks about doing it again but I think the actual experience has worn the idea a bit thin for L and R. E says she would like to try sleeping alone in her tent but I don't think she'd last very long as her imagination is a lot like her mothers.... overactive. :)
