Oh How Fast They Grow Up!
My Kindergartner's have graduated and that means they will be shoved into the nasty, cut-throat world of first grade. A once simple life is now twisted into a complex life full pull-up pants, first loves, nap-less days, life without your sippy cup........... And meeting the lunch ladies! ::shudder:: Oh how I hope they're ready!

Indonesian Skies
Everything in Indonesia was absolutely gorgeous, completely and utterly lovely, crazy beautiful, spectacular, delightful, charming, ravishing.... (you get the point)....but the single thing that amazed me morning, day and night??? The skies, Wowzer. The prettiest I've ever seen.

A beautiful Idea!
It's winter, and I had a wonderful idea a few weeks back! I thought if I acted like I were a bear and went into a hole to hibernate by the time I came out, I would not only get a nice layer of subcutaneous fat, but winter would be over. And, and then I would be free to frolic →
