Spring into Summer

Nest and Flight

a robin waits

the 6yo's nest

the 8yo takes flight

the entry path is added to the main garden

the geometry of the back garden

the new magnolia is gently asking the new peach tree to move over

Gratitude

Most weeks there is a night where the girls and I get to go to their godparents for supper. I am grateful for the delicious meal Jim prepares, but even more, I am grateful that these wonderful people are in our lives. When I was making the decision to be a single parent, I thought a lot about whether I would be able to handle all the challenges of parenting on my own. I didn't think about the fact that there wouldn't be anyone with whom to share the joys. These loving godparents are a gift to our family. I am grateful.

Peace.
