Entertainment Sans Internet

There was a storm Monday morning that knocked out the power for a short while.  I didn't think too much about it until the internet stopped working... even when the power came back on... and kept not working until late last night.  Needless to say, I was a bit sad.  I like showing the kids pictures of their American friends and family on Facebook, or finding a new recipe for Em and I to test while the other two are still napping.  I kept forgetting about the internet until after I'd already sat down, which meant the kids were already huddled around waiting for some new snapshot or some-such.  So in an effort to appease them, we started to go through old pictures.  Along the way, I realized there were a fair amount of short home videos.  It became a sort of game to hunt for another video of them when they were little(er).  Em had a hard time not calling herself Harper in many of the clips, but she eventually caught on.  Here are a few of my favorites from back when.
Coop was somewhere between 18-24 months in this and he'd just discovered frogs.  This is his rendition of what a frog looks and sounds like.  (It makes me giggle every time!)
This was a little over a year ago.  Still can't believe how big Harper has gotten in such a short time.
My baby girl, right around 2 1/2 with one of her first Bible verses.  I love this girl so much :)

Ohhhh...these are precious ... You are welcome to do this anytime!
As precious as they are -- it makes us realize how "the time DOES pass so quickly"
Love your kids -- and you/Todd too.
Thanks, again, for sharing their lives with us. I definitely have been blessed!
