The story of the BrickHaus
Once upon a time there were 4 Bricks. They lived in a house with two other Bricks. It was a big house and there was plenty of room. But it wasn’t their BrickHaus. One day they found another house that soon became the BrickHaus. It was perfect.
A girl’s room with pink stripes and a boy’s room painted yellow with white stars. A big pantry for MommaBrick and a playroom for the baby Bricks. {Who at that time were barely 2 and 3 }
The Bricks have loved their Haus. It is close to Mr. Brick’s work, easy to find and they have several great friends in the neighborhood.
However it became clear in the spring that perhaps the Bricks were ready for a new Haus. Now there were 5 Bricks. And #1 and #2 were school ready. MommaBrick found out she had many friends going to teach at a particular school and she was convinced that #1 and #2 needed to be at that school.
With much prayer and discussion and a few tears and late night talks the tall Bricks were on the same page. If a house could be found in the zone that would send #1 and #2 to the particular elementary school they desired and said house met very specific requirements a move would be made.
They found it!
They found a house in the beginning stages of being built and are able to be a part of all of the major decisions regarding everything from light fixtures to brick color.
Yep, the Bricks get to pick the bricks!
The next step is to sell the original BrickHaus. The Bricks are confident that a family will stumble upon Morris Lane and it will be as big a blessing to that family as it has been to them.
Here’s to prayers and patience-
Happy Friday!~

10 on Tuesday
10 things I love about my kiddos right now:
-#1 loves to make her bed and straighten her room.
-#3 sings 'Shake your booty' when I change her diaper
-#2 shimmies up any and every pole we pass
-#2 has my rhyming ability
-#1 is reading way above level, she finishes books in mere hours
-#3 has curly curly ringlets that turn into a 'fro when I brush them
-#2 still sucks his thumb and wants his silky at bed time....I know, I know.....
-#1 wants her hair to look like mine
-#3 says 'goggie' instead of doggie
-#2 sleeps in
-#1 prefers PBS shows to slightly older fare
-#3 gives TIGHT hugs around my neck
Ok, so I couldn't leave it at just 10......though I can't always be fair, I can list equal numbers for each of my beautiful babes!
