Fly high, little girl!

Everything is better with a bow on top of your head!

Happy Birthday Norah!

In the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter 

There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future 

For the lessons of life there is no better teacher 

Than the look in the eyes of a child

Norah

(Latin) honored,  honorable ; (Old Greek) bright one, shining one ;
  an Irish name for Honora

Lessons we've learned from our two year old...

every day is better with 
a little ice cream and long nap

a sticky kiss is the best kiss

you're never too old for a good loud cry

the world is huge and amazing and ready to explore

bugs (and spiders and flowers 
and  butterflies ) are cool

if in doubt, put it in your mouth

to play is a childs work...and this one works overtime!

pop tarts and root beer and Dora
 and Grandpa make for a great breakfast

all the problems of the world can be
 solved with 30 minutes in a swing

Happy Birthday, Baby Girl!

(to those whose  birthday's I've missed in my blogging break
....I'll be catching up with you!)

Hello October!

Bittersweet October.  

The mellow, messy, leaf-kicking, perfect pause 

between the opposing miseries of summer and winter

Hello football!

       

Nathan and Lincoln Execs C....still undefeated!

Hello foggy mornings!

The sun, peaking through the pines.

Hello Fall Ball!

Sunny weekend games in the dirt!

the Braves & Keegan in their fall league.

Hello beauty in the ordinary....

seeds of things to come...

Hello creepy crawlies...

dew drops on spider webs...

Welcome Fall, Y'all!
