After numerous attempts to purchase a swing set on Craig's List and hearing millions of prayers offered by E to get a swing set...look what we finally brought home!
E was sooo excited. She ran out in her pj's to help set it up in the yard.
W looks with anticipation. Someday we'll build a platform and slide to add to the fun.
O couldn't wait to get dressed. He came out to see the excitement.You know...E squealing with every delightful step.
Once the first swing was up, she was ready to test it out.
I got baby swings for the boys (2 for$5 at consignment...score!), but A wanted to see how they'd do on the flat swings. Look at W! He loved it.
O loved it too.
That night E thanked Heavenly Father several times for her swing set. She has thanked Him several times since. In fact, at a family dinner with relatives, E informed Wazzah, who just offered the prayer, that not only did she forget to bless the food, but she forgot to thank Heavenly Father for her swing set. She also tells everyone about it and invites them to come swing. When the missionaries were over for dinner she oozed excitement and wanted them to see it. When Daddy was about to leave with the missionaries at the door, E began to cry. " Daddy they need to see my swing set!"
They were blessed with the grand tour and E beamed.

At our first home we didn't have a swindset, the kids really wanted one though. When looking to move the kids wanted a house with the playset. That was all they cared about. Luckily the house we bought had a great one for the kids to play one.
I've been trying the constant prayer thing for a four wheeler. I'm gonna have to talk with E and get some pointers.
