Take a Hike

In Accordance

Place. Check. Time. Check. Carrot Cake Pancakes. Cross out. Waffle. Check.

And I love how Zane looks like such a big boy!

ƸӜƷ Happy Birthday, Vanessa ƸӜƷ

It's been six years since she fluttered her way into our hearts.

A Willing Heart and Helpful Hands

Yes, he's like most 2-year-olds -- he experiments with objections and refusals to comply -- but most of the time he shows a very willing and gentle heart. He plays extra rough but trumps it with affection. He cuts pretty flowers to win smiles, hugs, and kisses.

And sometimes he gives us gentle reminders that it's merely the thought that counts.

A Piano

"Life is like a piano. What you get out of it depends on how you play it."
