Tears of Relief!

Dw had left me to sleep in this morning.  He was going to get the little guys breakfast.  {I am not much of a sleeper-in type gal.  There’s way too much to do in my humble opinion.}   Anyway, Dw’s cell was charging in our room and it started ringing.   It was early. I…

Grateful

As Christmas was approaching, Dw and I took just Emmy and Graham shopping downtown for the day.   Four of us. Snowing. Sweet pleasures. Savoring every moment. Tender times. Some giggles.

Gardening: {With a Boatload}

Linny Saunders8 Comments

I really can’t think of much I would rather do then work outside in the garden as a family. There is something so gratifying about working hard {and playin’ hard} and seeing the fruits of our labor. Last week-end we worked together and put in our garden. Dw had built some raised beds out of…
