Waiting for Daddy. 
Taken through a dirty screen, this little man in the baseball cap he's worn every single day since his first baseball season started in May. That glorious golden hour light. This is just the sort of thing to make you realize one day, in the not so distant future, you'll miss these days so bad it'll hurt. ❤️

Last night after dinner, they sat around the table for almost an hour making up jokes and laughing so hard. This photo was taken at the tail end, when the joke books started to make an appearance. 
A pastor of a church we went to loved to weave some good (and bad) jokes into his sermons. He has since retired, but he told us when he was a young pastor at the annual pastors convention, their free time was largely filled with telling jokes. Their meal times filled with something akin to a joke war at each little table, and so much laughter! But over the years the jokes are less and less. And the whole event is much more serious. That's something we've taken to heart and hope jokes become a much bigger part of our family culture. One of my husband's grandmothers loved jokes and would call up different family members just to read them her current favorites. It's a bit of her family legacy, something we're happy to carry on. Her husband was a pastor as well and one of his jokes is a big family favorite. I'll leave it in the comments. We're also getting to the point where we have a bunch memorized! (To clarify, not harsh prankster jokes, but punny, goofy ones.) 🥰

They know that winter is coming on fast, and the growing season is just about over. However. They decided to clear out the weeds, move a bunch of plants in here, and make a nursery today. Daddy has his plant ID app out on his phone and they've got a few trees, some shrubs, a sunflower plant and garlic. It never ceases to amaze me what they fill their empty hours with! Maybe next year we'll actually have the free time to start seeds in early spring and plant them once it warms up!
