Miss Joy in March

May 16, 2021 by NZ Filbruns Leave a Comment

In looking over our photos from March, I’m seeing a lot of them of one person! Miss Joy is quite popular, and very cute. She’s into everything, and jabbers about everything. We can even understand part of what she says!

Her favorite book is Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? This copy was given to Elijah by his grandmother, probably 15 years ago. It has been taped together and glued together, and is still being enjoyed! I just ordered a replacement, though, a board book this time, because this one got left in a windowsill overnight and the condensation soaked it. It’s still readable, but the pages are all falling out and the covers are swollen. We can’t be without this book, though!

Mr. Imagination built a couple of hammocks, and his little sisters enjoyed them.IMG_0596

Helping the big boys mow lawn! She must have been trying to figure out how to start it.IMG_0628

There are two little babies at church, and Miss Joy loves them. So does her big brother Simon!IMG_0704

Miss Joy is an artist. She loves to draw! She often asks for pen and “papee!” She wants to “ite!” She focuses hard on what she is doing, and keeps at it until her piece of paper is covered with her scribbles.IMG_5392IMG_5393IMG_5394

She also loves to climb in bed with Little Miss! It’s so much fun to read at bedtime.IMG_5395

I’m not sure what she was doing here in Esther’s room.IMG_5396

One afternoon she came marching into the living room brandishing a croquet mallet in one hand, a block of wood in the other, and dangling a toothbrush from her mouth!IMG_7561IMG_7563

Another day, she figured out how to climb into the washing machine. IMG_7566Can you tell we enjoy having this little girl around? She sure adds sparkle to our days!

And, here is a video I just remembered making.
