......You Can't Rush Fine Art.......

Well, I have come to my 3rd post now, and with thoughts floating through my mind, I have decided to blog about kiddos. Not just any ol kiddos, but 2 that I have spent alot of time with lately. Yes, of course, Hunter is one of them... & let me just start off with saying that this "homeschooling journey" that we are on, is very much a BLESSED one!!!! (Goes way beyond any expectations I had of what it might be like.... & btw I am sure there is a blog in the near future about it.)

The other kiddo in my blog tonight is Logan Bostic. He is a very special kiddo. One I have grown to love and loved to watch grow!!!!! He holds a very special place in my heart. I won't go into details on his life, just know.... HE IS VERY SPECIAL! Absolutely a gift from GOD!

I meet Logan when he was just a couple of days old. We go to church with him & his family. I have watched him grow into an AWESOME kid, or as Danny says "The coolest kid I know". Logan will be 6 (OMGosh, really! 6 already!!!!) in December. Over the summer I have gotten to really "know" Logan! He really is neat-o! :-)

Hunter & Logan have grown pretty close these past few months. Our families have started spending more time together & recently, after weeks of Logan begging his Momma, he stayed the night with us & this is when it all began!

Logan: Mrs. Tonya
Me: Yes, Logan
Logan: Sometimes, Puppy (his dog) gives me a wedgie in my ear.
Me: A wedgie in your ear?
Logan: Yeah, a wedgie in my ear!
Me: Uhh, don't you mean a wet willy?
Logan: No, a wedgie!


I would have to tell you guys.... this was the funniest conversation I have EVER had in my life! It was about 3 weeks ago and I still laugh every time I think about it!

Which leads me up to my blog.......You Can't Rush Fine Art.........

Famous words from our kiddos! (and our friends sometimes too)


You can still trade your boots in, if you want to!

Sometimes, Puppy gives me a wedgie in my ear!

If Dad has a seizure, just leave him on the ground. He'll wake up.

You can't rush fine art.

Mommy did you know when something looks like something that really isn't -- it is called an ovulation????

My Monkey has boobs!

Does the Elephant hurt when you take his butt off????


& last but def NOT least (cuz I am sure there will be a part 2 to this blog).....

Will you go check on my husband? He has been in the restroom a long time.... (When he hadn't been with us AT ALL that day!!!!!) ~ Anonymous, but you know who you are :-)


I have had many MANY interesting conversations with these 2 kiddos lately! I am sure there are many more to come.... I love my Hunter & my Logan.... (yes, I consider him MY Logan too.) I can not wait to watch these 2 to continue to grow in to God Loving, God Fearing Men!

Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. ~ Proverbs 22:6

It's true.... You really can't rush fine art! Kids are God's masterpiece and He is working on us ALL everyday! Some of us may be Dali's, Ansel Adam's or even Thomas Kincaid's.... but we are all truly God's fine art & He doesn't try to rush us into HIS masterpiece.....!



Kids really do say the darnedest things!

I'm out!
