"Common Ground": my little corner of the blogosphere where I talk (a lot-wink) about the things that matter most to me: My relationship with my Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ, homeschooling, adoption, homemaking, parenting, "spousing." (yeah, yeah....I know that's not a word.....I made it up-it’s my blog-I can do things like that! Ha!)
Since my life isn’t all that different from yours, hopefully we can find some COMMON GROUND & learn from each other. Please share your thoughts!
Through the Lords’s mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not.
They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness!
Lam. 3: 22 & 23
Let's see...what do you want to know about us? We are a family of five......whose kids joined the family through birth & adoption. This blog started when we were adopting for the second time.....but now, it has become journal of our lives together! Sometimes entertaining, sometimes sad, sometimes thought-provoking (at least for me, ha!! ha!!!).
Thanks for joining us on this ride!
Friends From All Over! Join up & see YOUR picture here, too!
The Three Wonders Of OUR World! (y mis hijos preciosos!)
Our Family (Nuestra familia)
"An adopted child is not an unwanted child; to the contrary. They are a child who was searched for, prayed for, cried for, begged for; received by arms that ached, making empty hearts full. Love is meant to be shared." - Author unknown
Mine just ran down the hall and around the living room with the toilet paper streaming along behond him. He managed to unroll the whole roll while I was in the shower and was playing dutifully with his legos by the time I got out. Yeah, I feel your pain.
Hey, at least it did not get stuffed in the toilet, LOL!
We found a great solution that will help us in the future with little ones. We are extra crunchy around here. I believe in cloth wipes for babies, and the natural extention of that, was to switch to family cloth for us, about a year ago. Its not at all icky like one would think, and it had no smell. Soft flannel is wonderful, and there is honestly no extra laundry to do.

Anna-yeah, that'll teach me to leave them alone for 3 seconds! Ha!
Isn't it amazing how much toilet paper is actually on one of those little rolls?!
I keep telling the kiddos: "Toilet paper is not a toy."
I think they're learning. Well, I think that until I find them playing with the TP again...

very funny. good that you're making the little culprits clean it up. hasn't happened at my house yet. but now that I said that, it will.
My FIL used to tell me to turn the paper around so that they would have to spin it the other way to get it off. It actually worked... for a while.
In other words, yes these things happen here too. But my kids are all older so now we have different messes, but messes just the same.

Paula-I'm glad you'll have regular for me if I ever visit! :)
That happens at our house all the time! What is it about toilet paper and boxes that amaze children.
LOL!!! It's funny when the boys colored all over their room a camera is the first thing I grabbed. I think its a survival tool :)
Happy New year!!!
