A BOY IS

TRUTH with dirt on his face,

BEAUTY with a cut on his finger,

WISDOM with bubble gum in his hair,

and theHOPE of the future with a
frog in his pocket.

LITTLE GIRLS

Little girls are made of daisies and butterflies and soft kitty cat purrs

And all the precious memories of times that once were.

Little girls are made of angel's wings and giggles and a firefly's glow

And all the happy feelings, deep inside, that we all know.

Little girls are made of cinnamon and bubbles and fancy white pearls

And snowflakes and rainbows and ballerina twirls.

Little girls are made of sunshine and cupcakes and fresh morning dew,

And these are the reasons, little one, why everyone loves you.

A Garden!




So today after Justin's primary acticity we spent the day finishing the backyard and garden. The masquito magnet is in, sand in the sandbox again, strawberries planted in the bird bath and lots of veggies in the garden! And an orange and lemon tree - so exciting - fresh fruit every spring and fall :) It doesn't look like it in the pic but that is really 600ft of beautiful soft new squishy grass!!! I love looking out my back door or sitting on the porch!
