When play turns to cray

Sometimes my kids play

they just occupy themselves with toys

(i love this little round belly poking out to the side)

 they play "guess which hand it is"

they pretend they are indoor baseball superstars

 they love each other

 they smile when I ask for a smile

and make kissy faces when I ask them to make kissy faces.  

 and then they give each other some more love.  It's like all is well, there's love and peace abounding in our home and everyone has a smile on their face.  

then - without a moments notice, all that play turns a little cray!  Who knows what happens, maybe they have just had to much love and too much fun for that 20 minutes and someone MUST have a little drama.  As Walker and I like to say, "it's gettin' kinda cray-cray"  

I know your kids don't do this, it's all crafting, cooking, learning and love in your home, right?  Let's be honest I know we ALL must have these days!  At least no one is taking photos of me when I'm having a little cray-cray moment!  

And I'm thankful to have these pics to look back on and remember that they are sweet kids, they do love each other and there is love and joy amidst the craziness!
