Life

We are so fortunate in this life of ours. The summer sunshine and rain has blessed us with so many pretty flowers.

And the kids are all full of life in the summer warmth. Julie loves to run and be chased, and some times tickled.

Claudia had a fantastic three weeks in Decorah, Iowa. The strength and courage she gained will carry on for weeks to come.

Vincent is showing his sensitive side in the American Girl Bistro in Minneapolis. Don't worry he is subjected to ample time reading and playing with trucks too.

Eloise, our future entomologist, holds a Cabbage White Butterfly that recently hatched in her butterfly habitat. Most would be unhappy to find them on their broccoli leaves, but I'll put up with a few holes for her delight.

We truly are blessed and we are enjoying these blessings every single day. Life is too short to do otherwise.
