Friday.

These people...fill my heart.

This girl...this is her...crazy and carefree...full of life. I have so many photos of her with her hands up in the air looking out at the water...she seems to just soak it all up and loves it! Here she is with her brothers Frisbee...delighting in the fact that she has it and they don't!

This girl...my girl...spirited...sweet...loved...

These two...my boys...they truly care for one another and are great friends. I love watching them grow, learn and dream. These two...my boys...wonderful...amazing...loved...

Ryan perfecting the art of catching a Frisbee...he's getting good.

Today was the party for Ryan's birthday at Michaels. I'll post a photo or two soon. The photos here I took when we went on a hike in the evening. As I loaded them on the computer, I begin to get reflective and realize how blessed I am. This Mom was in desperate need of some nature and solitude (and time for reflection.) The lake was so beautiful and the breeze so nice...

Adopt the pace

of nature:

her secret

is patience.
