We got a new TV. It’s one of those big flat screen thingies that you hang on the wall. It is pretty impressive. Since we’ve had our old TV (the only one we have in our house) for over 12 years we thought it was time to upgrade!
The very first thing we broke out on our new TV was a new DVD. Veggie Tales’ new compilation DVD called Happy Together. It’s basically just 3 past episodes–Sheerluck Holmes, Esther and Grapes of Wrath. (I love the Grapes of Wrath song, it cracks me up!) So, it’s a themed DVD focusing on faith, family and friendship! (How great would that be for the Letter F?)
What’s fun about this (and makes it better than just a little compilation) is that there is a cartoon woven throughout the show where real kids are interviewed but they are veggies. Wait, that’s not right. Real veggies are interviewed, but they are actually kids. The point is–kids were interviewed and now look like veggies. *sigh* You’ll just have to see it to understand it!
My kids wanted to watch all 80 minutes of it at once. Instead, we just watched one section (oh, and a silly song, too! I forgot there are silly songs on it!) and the kids were ecstatic that the scripture for Sheerluck Holmes was Proverbs 17:17–their Dragon and Turtle verse!

Seeing my daughter’s face light up and hearing her say “WOW” when she sees something she likes or something new to her. It changes my perspective on the world!

I love seeing my little Macey get excited about things that we so often take for granted…snow, puppies, birds, etc. She’ll say, “Ooohhh!” or “Wooooow.” So sweet and happy!

What makes me happy is just having my son back in my life. After him living with his dad for 4 1/2 years, I’m completely ecstatic to have him home. No longer do I take the everyday mundane routines for granted. I get up early to make his breakfast before school and make sure I’m there to pick him up on time!!! And we sing silly songs while cleaning and doing chores!!!!
