Xander's Nap


~




"Let's read Peter Rabbit."....."It's a good story, isn't it, Xander?......OK, time to rest. Do you need a blanket?"......"Yeah. Let's share a blanket!"....."Okay. Aunt Jessie made this one."........."It's a nice blanket."....."Yes, it is. Let's get covered up."......."D'Amah, keep your eyes open."......"But I need to rest, and so do you."......"But why?"....."Your daddy said so."......"Why?"......"Because he knows you're tired."......."Why?".......snuggle, snuggle......"D'Amah, I like you."......"I like you, too, Xander."

Mother's Day Tea

~
My daughters treated me to a lovely tea at our dear friend Cathi's house.
The day was stunning and the company delightful!

The table was beautiful.

The food was amazing!


Flowering tea.....

and cucumber sandwiches, quiche and muffins.....

and a stunning fresh berry pie!

My treasured daughters and daughter-in-law, and dear friend Cathi.

Jessie painted really cool name cards.  :-)

And we were blessed to have sweet children....

to delight us.

And to top it off, the mountain showed her face in the front yard,

and dogwood was blooming.....one of my favorite parts of spring.

Thanks Jessie, Maggie and Cathi!
Dana, we missed you!!

Mother's Day

~
For 28 years now, I've been a mom.  And for 2 1/2 a grandma.  This year on Mother's Day, I had the joy of catching the delight of my grandson on our trampoline. Such fun.


 
Playing with "Chief"

 Bouncing.........

 Flying.........

Loving every minute......

 An Electrifying Experience!

 Roaring!

 Playing Mario Kart.......something we now wish
we had allowed his daddy to do when he was young.

"I have no greater joy than this, to hear of my children
(and grandchildren) walking in the truth." 3 John 1:4
