November 28th (Lights at Rhema and hot chocolate)
The most heartwarming moment of the day: We went to pick Serenity up from school, and since I had to try a ninja hat on Barrett we were in the lobby. He saw her coming out of her classroom and wiggled to get down. Then they ran down the hall to each other calling "MY sis!" "DZ (pronounced deez sometimes now)" And then they flew into each other's arms and hugged. Awww. They did something similar this morning when he got up and went into her room to check out her lights. So sweet.
I was rolling around on the floor with DZ and he pointed to the bag of polyfill. He first pointed out the O, which I knew he knew. Then, he touched the P and said P!!! Then he touched the Y and said why! And after I freaked out with enthusiasm he showed me the y several more times He also did the F! Yes! Serenity's letter lessons are sinking in!
We went to see the two million lights at Rhema again this year. It was much warmer than last year. The kids ran around until they were completely exhausted. We all loved going through the tunnel of lights. It was all so beautiful! And I used my camera on Manual mode, yay me! ISO 1600, f2.8, 1/30. No flash!
