Josiah experienced a week as the only child at home while Isaac and Emma were in Colorado!
Josiah and I went on a long walk on the first Friday morning that the kids were gone. Josiah wanted to walk instead of ride his bike, and it took us a long time to walk my typical route, largely because Josiah gets so involved in asking questions or telling a story that it's hard to keep pace. :) In fact, I'm writing this now in November (4 months later) and today when we went on a walk, Josiah asked if it would be as long as the walk we took on the day we went to ICR! Haha! I'm thankful for sweet times to savor with Josiah, just like this long, hot walk!
After our long walk, we went to the ICR Creation Museum and then had lunch at In-N-Out.
We loved our family class at church this summer! Here is a crown made out of play dough on "King Josiah's" head. This was for a game at the beginning of class where one family member fashioned an item out of play dough and their family members tried to guess what the item was!
Josiah also enjoyed chess at Pop and Mom-o's!
"It's been a long time without Emma and Isaac and just you, me, and Dad, and it's been so, so fun!" Josiah said near the end of our week together. Another of his picks for the week was lunch at the Starwood Cafe together.
Enjoying kolaches and supervising work on the grotto
It was an exciting morning as we poured concrete on the grotto deck!
Josiah's last request before Emma and Isaac came home was homemade chocolate chip cookies!
