he found them

He found them.

He hasn’t fit in them for some time and I set them aside in a pile of clothes to give away to a cousin.

But he found them.

From the other room, he said, “Mom, I want to show you something. Are you ready?”

“Yes, I am ready.”

His face was beaming with true love as he rounded the corner and galloped towards me.

“My Cowboy Pants!!! They Still Fit!!!”

He didn’t mind that his 2T cowboy pants actually looked liked knickers.

He found them.



Like an old friend they were inseparable all day!

down and out

...and just as we were sliding into June quite nicely,
we all got the stomach bug.

Y u c k .

It was not fun and we are still recovering.

But I am happy…

- I got my flowers planted last week
- our busy school schedule is winding down
- warm weather is begging us to keep the pool set up
- for Gatorade, Saltines and applesauce
- for my sweet sister who dropped off five new DVD’s for us to watch when we were down and out

Despite our sickness and my youngest getting stung by a bee on his big toe, I am still finding things to be happy about.

How about you?

Happy June

…wrapping up home school, staying out of the rain, playing in the rain, staying out of the heat wave, cooling off in the pool, smelling honeysuckle, planting new flowers, riding bikes a little faster, seeing the first lightening bug, making popsicles, (is that another ant?), having friends over, grilling chicken and eating juicy, sweet watermelon….sliding into June has been fun!

I hope you are sliding into June quite nicely.
