6/12 ~ Ten Happy Years

My husband and I have been married for ten years!   He made a tin mobile for me to celebrate the occasion.  

I love that man and I hope I can spend 100 more years with him.

6/11 ~ Leftovers

Sometimes, I can look around the yard and see where the girls have been.

6/10 ~ Fluffy white cloud day

The girls had a blast swimming at the lake today.

I love having friends who live on lakes.  Especially when they invite us to come jump off their deck.

6/9 ~ Her favorite place

Mili takes her job as Queen of the Backyard seriously -- but she still knows how to have fun while she fusses at the birds, chases the squirrels, talks to the airplanes, and argues with the neighbor's cats.

That is one happy girl!

6/8 ~ Welcome home

For the last nine months, my youngest step-daughter has been living and studying in London.  She is now back on our side of the pond.  Tonight, we had a celebratory dinner to hear about some of her adventures.

6/7 ~ Hello, little slug

It's a big world out there!

The man worked today.
The boy slept until noon thirty.
The girls were with their mother.
And I listened to an audiobook and cleaned and cooked.

Is it sad that I love having time to clean and just be home?

6/6 ~ Nature reclaims

The man and I had a meeting downtown.  We are at the meet, plan, meet again and plan again stage of foster care for the girls.

All is going well.

This building is across the street from where we meet.  The plants growing from crevices remind me of the impermanency of things.

Fitting reminder, too.
