"Nature looks dead in winter because her life is gathered into her heart. She withers the plant down to the root that she may grow it up again fairer and stronger. She calls her family together within her inmost home to prepare them for being scattered abroad upon the face of the earth." Hugh Macmillan

i'm sorry, so sorry
This morning Ashtyn and I played a round of Wii Party on the Wii together and he beat me...he beat me by ALOT!!!! After we had finished the game Ash told me "not to look" at what he was doing as he found a piece of blank paper and sat at the kitchen table to write. He asked me how to spell "good", "video" and "games" but other then that he sounded this note out all by himself!! He wrote: "I ned tou saa u ded a good good job on the video games" which when you sound out his 6-year-old writing it says "I need to say you did a good good job on the video games" I was so proud of Ash for writing this note and even more flattered that he wanted to write it for me! He has such a sweet and tender heart and he really does think of others often. While he wants to win the game he doesn't want the loser to feel bad! Ha!!

I know it sounds strange and mushy but I cried after reading this post. Ashtyn has a God-given gift of compassion. It even shows up after playing ( and winning at ) video games. Sweet. So Sweet.
