Going on a bear hunt...

Keegan is drinking a bottle while I rock him before bed. Our new favorite story is We're Going on a Bear Hunt. It's too funny because we've read it every night for the past week and a half, and it's the only book that Keegan will stop screaming to read when he's crabby, and amazingly- sit still, look at the pictures and try to turn the pages the whole time.

I've had so much more time to pray since Keegan was born: lots of feedings and nap times, but have recently found myself questioning painful hurdles in people's lives... As silly as it is, We're Going on a Bear Hunt really reminded me of something profound: As the family proceeds on their adventure, encountering all sorts of predicaments along the way, they state over and over again, "We can't go over it, we can't go under it, Oh-no, we've got to go through it!"

They proceed to overcome all of the challenges and find that bear.

Love it. I hope that continues to be a Karolkiewicz Family favorite, and even a motto to live by. :)
