Chalk “Paint” and The Crabapple Tree

March 22, 2012 ·

I love listening to my daughter talk. She’s 2.5 years old going on 13! She has no problem speaking her mind and while she has trouble making the “t” and “f” sound at the end of her words she has no problem communicating and forming understandable and complete sentences. She soaks up everything like a sponge and when she went out to color with sidewalk chalk with her Grammy the other day she told her,”I need my chalk paint! I’m chalk painting.”

Oh man! The two things I immediately think upon hearing this are 1) I love this little girl! (She cracks me up and while she is definitely in that testing stage she is a riot and the cutest little bundle of energy you ever saw.) and 2) I’m thinking we talk a little too much about redoing furniture. 😉

We went outside to chalk “paint” today and enjoyed the sun and our pretty blooming tree out front!

Getting to go outside and enjoying the sun and trees in bloom are my favorite parts of spring!  God’s glory can truly be seen in the beauty of nature.

    I know exactly what you mean! Emma has said a few times, when I'm dusting furniture…"mommy maybe you should just paint that and sell it instead of cleaning it"…Yes, I talk about redoing furniture TOO much!
