Sometimes that's what you do, because what else can you do?

Daughter's early morning nagging stomachache became an appendectomy late into the night last night. She is well again. We are home again. In a span of 24 wild hours. And there has been peace. Throughout this whole crazy week there has been peace and I will never find that ordinary.

Going to curl up under blankets now grateful for all the people tucked in safely here at home again, and those bigger boys, venturing out on their own, under other roofs tonight.

It is beautifully warm and sunny in our neck of the woods. Hope Mother Nature is treating you as well! It has been a very full week here. Full month. And still filling. But I hope to catch up soon.

say you will, say you will…

"Marry me…

You wear white

and I'll wear out the words I love you

And you're beautiful.

Promise me you'll be happy by my side

I promise to sing to you when the music dies

say you will, say you will

Marry me."

– Train

Facebook folks have heard the news – my baby is getting married.

The one whose name means Happy and Blessed

to this beautiful girl whom we adore.

Poetry Wednesday – Moon

Posted on March 23, 2011 by Kim Halloran-Fry

From The Rime of the Acient Mariner-

The moving Moon went up the sky.
And nowhere did abide;
Softly she was going up,
And a star or two beside-

By Samuel Taylor Coleridge

(1772-1834)

A little peek….

No not this little person hiding by the fridge. She is just glad to see….

This one….

Who just finished the Rome Marathon in a little over 3 1/2 hrs thankyouverymuch.

He and the big kids just arrived back from their fantastic week away. They fell hard for Roma. How will we ever keep them down on the farm once they've seen…. well, you know the cliche lol.

This is a crazy fantastic continent, I tell you, that you can be standing in Rome in the morning and 90 minutes later be driving through the German countryside. Incredible. This has been real life learning at its finest and next week some of the crew are off to England. I need to upload faster!
