miss you
I haven’t seen my mom in a couple weeks now. I miss her. When she’s in town, I’m working. When I’m not at work, she’s long gone. I don’t like it, but we must live with it. Tonight when I got out of the bathtub and was putting on my pajamas, laughing to myself about
you wrecking the picture
Okay, first I took this sweet picture of my girls. We’re having such a peaceful Sunday around the house, and the sun is finally shining after about a year and a half of gloom and rain. Tim was there, and I said, “You be in the picture too.” He ran over. And that little honey

cloudy weekend at the lake
This guy was there. We also now have LAUNDRY!! I was so excited I actually took l.c. inside and held him up to the side of the washer to watch the water pour in. He wasn’t sure why this was exciting exactly, but he humored me. It was warm enough for these people to swim.
