Taste of Spring

I've been away a while! I've been taking care of my family and working at our church as usual. I love the weather we had last week, it was a kind reprieve from the bitter winter of my state. This week is still spring-like: wet, rainy, cloudy and cool! I'm sure we have another good snowstorm or blizzard coming yet this year, March isn't over yet!
I hope your winter has been kind to you!

I love fall

"I like spring but it is too young. I like summer but it is too proud. I like best of all autumn; its tone is mellower, its colors richer, and it is tinged a little with sorrow. It knows the limitations of life and is content."-Lin Yutang

Carnival Roses

Dave got me the coolest roses when I got back from NY, they're called "Woodstock" and are so fragrant!

Hello Hand

It was hilarious but sweetly naive. Dave was joking with Darien at lunch, I don't remember the conversation but Dave ended with "Talk to the hand" and put up his hand.
In the sweetest voice he could use, as if he was talking to our Kitty, Darien said "Hello hand".

Is four the cutest age?

Darien woke up this morning late so he didn't get to see Daddy off to work. When he woke up he said seriously "Did Daddy awedy weave for work?" I said "Yes, is that OK?" He replied "No!" I asked "Why?" "Because I want to give him a hug and a kiss!"

Whistle while you work

Dave hums, sings and whistles a lot in the morning; (more evidence that he is the sole morning person in the house, much to my annoyance;)) Usually I bear up under such "distress" very well, but it never fails that somehow, sometime every Saturday or Sunday morning he will, on the two days of the week I could be free from it, whistle the main theme song to "Elmo's World".
Why?

Family fun!

This weekend we visited family! Darien had such a great time with his younger cousin. They played in the baby pool, the water was cold but that didn't stop them from splashing each other!
