Hi friends--
A few explanations:
1. my camera doesn't talk to my computer any more, so I have to wait and remember to use Mark's work computer. So that is why I can't fix the lack of Mary Tessa in these pictures. Because, land knows, she is around me at all times and in all places and in all things. Because she is four and we can't escape each other..But she's a good girl.
2. Luna is sucking on my wrist as I type. I constructed most of this left-handed trying not to wake her. She's now 3 months old and is a crown jewel. A few of these shots of her are oldies but goodies (on the pillow about 6 weeks ago); but, hey, that's how it is with baby pictures. So soon they're growing and the photos are old, right? She's smiling, holding up her neck pretty well on my shoulder, and nearly laughing.
3. I cut some three pounds off of my hair. If I had easy photography access you'd see that too, but we'll just have to save that for another time. If there are any completely out of context phrases in here, it's because I'm keeping up a semi-inane conversation with Mary Tessa about shooting bad guys with my other brain cells. Back to the hair, it's both young and mature at the same time.
4. I like what Simon does with Legos better than what the kits' original intent was. His Hogwarts now sports some cannons/surveillance cameras.
5. Allianna has gone from being physically ill with terror for days thinking about attending P.E. (and going to Art 3x/week instead), to being the runner up at 1st grade dodgeball. All the 3rd graders were gathering around yesterday and yelling to Simon to come see his sister winning. It took a year and a half of prayer and courage, but I love hearing her happily recount how many laps she ran.
6. Mark just went to Hawaii for a week. All refreshed and recharged for the final charge at the PhD.
7. I am completely obsolete to Blogger. It's leaving me in the dust and barely able to draw up a post.
