Leap Day Time Capsules

**Don't open til Leap Day 2020!!**



How cool is this?  These are Time Capsules that our kids made yesterday said.  They wrote in a little about themselves now and four things they hope to do before the next leap year.  A couple of my kids even threw in some cash as a present for their future self.  Love the thoughtfulness and generosity!!

We found this great idea from Jessica at Shower of Roses.  My biggest worry hope is that I can remember where I stash these and find them in four years - lol!!











 2020??  Can't even imagine how much different my life will look like then...  I'll have an 18 year old, 17 year old, 15 year old, 13 year old, 12 year old, 10 year old, 7 year old, and a 5 year old!  And we won't even say how old I'll be by then - lol!  But man, it was cute talking to some of them about how different their own lives will be then....  Fone will be taking college classes, Mario will be driving and probably working a part-time job, Melody will be finishing up her driving hours, Ariel an official teenager, Max - can't even imagine him being 12 yet (wow!), same with Pookey being 10 (seriously?!), and sweet Rose better be potty-trained by then and will most likely be reading, and lil babe Yoda, I'm hoping will be sleeping in his own bed and walking (hee hee!).  And, all of this is our plans and outlook of where we will be in 4 years.  It's all God willing.  He is in charge, not us.

++May God bless us and help us to always know and feel His presence between now and then++
