Easy Livin'

Summer (and my new part-time schedule!) has arrived and we have been determined to have lots and lots more fun! From dancing the night away at beautiful weddings to chasing each other's long shadows on the boardwalk, we are happy and chatty and silly.

The only work we will allow is the work that doesn't feel like work. Amie has speech camp with Ms. Julie on Wednesdays and we share waffle mornings with Ms. Donna at her school, Child's Play. I have been observing there and really loving being with those kids (and learning some nuggets of wisdom from Ms. Donna!)

Every day Amie has a new, fantastic story to tell about our adventures- which are half true-to-life and half wildly creative...usually involving saving someone in trouble or "feeling" (bad or good) All of the sudden a month has gone by! Now, we have less days of summer left and our little girl is growing up before our eyes- more talking and interacting with all kinds of people and less of the other, worrisome stuff.


Who would have thought that slowing down was all we had to do?
