We May Not Have it All Together...
But Together We Have it All!

Summer Time


Ahh summer! The sun is already beating warm upon our necks at 8 am.

I travel Indian River Drive on my to work and embrace the reflection on the lagoon. I realize again just how blessed I am. Tonight we have Dakota's kindergarten school orientation. I managed to hold back all but a few tears at his graduation from preschool. He looks forward to the big yellow bus and cafeteria food..... how long will that last I wonder? But his curiosity makes me smile. Only week one of spring break and he tells me he is bored.... the apple doesn't fall far from the tree I guess. We have already counted the blooms on his magnolia tree and searched the watermelon plant for signs of fruit. Next up will be a fishing trip with dad, summer camp at The Manatee Center, a cruise, a week of zoo camp and grandma & grandpa's house. Yet he will still say what's next with all enthusiasm! Every day a new beginning.... a new chance to discover something new. Oh course my youngest is taking it day by day in another way. We are working on potty training, colors and the singing songs. The backyard suites her just fine.... for now!
