Our Savior's love, shines like the sun with perfect light. As from above, it breaks through clouds of strife.

This and that

SJ saying goodbye to her best neighbor friend before we moved.



Sj's kindergarten orientation and bus ride.  She is sooooo excited!  (Yes, that is another bandaid on her head... This girl is rough and tumble).

Checking out the trails behind our new house.



Greg and I went to a sounders soccer game...we loved it!  



Ring around the rosy

Ashes ashes we all fall down


Getting some sun

1st grade concert

Clara had a concert with her 1st grade class at school this Spring.  All week leading up to it, she kept telling me about a special song they were working on for the parents... it was going to be a surprise and she couldn't sing it for me ahead of time (but I heard it about 100 times as she hummed and sang it under her breath all week long).  "We appreciate you, yeah you're really great... we appreciate you yeah you're really cool.  You make us so happy with the things you say and do.  Yeah we appreciate you." 

(Clara is on the bottom left in the purple dress)


After the concert she ran up and gave me a big hug.  "Mom, did you see me crying during the special song?  I was singing to you and it was because I love you so much."  Pretty much melted my heart.

We survived

And he did, too.  We're happy to have daddy back after his 2 week trip to India. Also glad for him that the summit he organized went smoothly.
