J: “Dinah could you please come to the pond with me? Please, I beg you!”

D: “No Jo, I need to stay home and read so I can be a better mother someday.”

J: “You will be a better mother someday if you come and swim with me.”

D: “You almost convince me, but no, I have too much work to do. Regina is going with you and she can play and you'll have a special time.”

J: “You ought to come with me because this may be your last time swimming with me before you get married!”

D: “Oh, I do not think so!”

J: “Yeah, I think you are going to get married tomorrow and I’ll never see you again.”

D: “Tomorrow?” I said laughing.

J: “I think some guy is going to marry you in the night and take you off to Idaho. You are going to have a speed wedding.”

D: “Sounds more like kidnapping to me.” I said as I made tortillas for Victor.

J: “I wish I could convince you.”

Jodavid walked into the living room and was silent for a while.

J: “Would you go if I had made those tortillas for you?”

D: “No.”

Then he sat in silence.

D: “I guess I’ll go. Yeah, I will come.”

Jodavid walked into the kitchen. “Dinah, I prayed you would come. God changed your heart!”

D: “You did?”

J: “Yes, that is what I was doing in the living room.”

D: “Yes, God changed my heart.”

J: “What I said had influence on you!”

I went. Once again, I found out that when we invest our time into children we have more fun than we would have on our own. ~Dinah

Dinah found flowers in the pond.

Hannah caught grapes in her mouth as her brother tossed them into the air!

I, Dinah, snuck around the pickup truck to get this pic.

They stopped as soon as they saw the camera.
