Of ruined tomatoes and bare bottoms!






The kids have been having a great time this morning in the yard. The temperature is about 60 degrees and so it is perfect for spending lots of time outdoors. From what I can gather, they are playing rocket ship right now. As soon as Nathan got outside he removed his shorts and diaper (a ritual these days) and has been enjoying himself half naked. Of course popsicles were on the menu as well as quartered apples. Unfortunately I have had to keep a closer eye on them than normal due to a little incident yesterday. Leia and Spencer removed three tomatoes from one of our plants. Theres no chance of saving them. They are so tiny and so green. I hope the lecture we gave them plus threats of no swimming lessons will do the trick but I am still being vigilant non the less.

Oh yes, and one further little note. Leia swam half way across the YMCA pool yesterday completely unassisted. No noodle, or anything. We are very proud of her progress. Mummy can't remember when she learned to swim but Daddy didn't learn until he was in 5th or 6th grade! We are so blessed to have three wonderful kids who love life and are always full of joy.
