SOOC Saturday (or Sunday)
When you read this, our family will be making the drive to take Lee back to residential.
Our time together was [insert descriptive word which means way better than imagined].
Please share a SOOC photo of whatever makes you happy this weekend.
Back soon.
❤
Comment...we should think about the fact that time is a zero-sum game.
Things we spend time on inherently take time away from other things.
So constantly ask,
Is this the best and highest use of my time?

Wil's Special Olympics weekend post(s) with photos and video is coming soon.
Wil won two silver medals in swimming,
however, swimming is only part of the story.
✯
I will be away from here for a few...
Lee is coming home for a three day/two night visit.
Our family will be hugging, talking, laughing, playing...
and did I mention hugging?
❤
Would you please scroll back up, read the quote again, and constantly ask...?
Wil is competing in the Georgia Special Olympics summer games this weekend. Like last year, he will be swimming the 25m and 50m freestyle.
Here's a shot of the athlete after his 25m preliminary swim on Friday morning snapped with camera phone.
This is (hopefully) posting from my Backflip and no linky will be added.
Cut me some slack this weekend and post your SOOC Saturday (or Sunday) photo link in comments...please and thank you.
A big "GO WIL!" would be enthusiastically received.
*please excuse poor formatting and any typos - remember this was posted on mobile, and I am tired snzzzzzzz...While sipping coffee from the breakfast nook, a moment captured through the window...
The day lillies are about to bloom
and so too, I believe, is a young photographer.
We have taken an unplanned hiatus from Mac and Melody
because...
I am not one to force my almost 13 year old son to pursue an interest when he is, well, not interested.
However...
The delightful opportunity of a collaborative (in addition to our own) has renewed Mac's interest in photography.
Me...I'm happy dancing.
Him...snapping photos daily.
You...more details later.
We will soon return to posting at Mac and Melody.
This week our family is preparing for the coming weekend's state Special Olympics summer games.
Wil will again be diving into that really big pool
while his mom hangs over upper deck railings photographing and capturing video.
Of course I will share.
Oh, there's even more fabulous news to share,
however, right now I'm afraid of jinxing things by speaking of it.
❤
Make today your best ever, and then do it again tomorrow.
My grandfather did this while my grandmother snapped photos.
I'm sure that some day (in therapy) I will forgive them.
P.S. Next week he is getting a pony because it's the least we can do.
SOOC Saturday - Come on, share the love or weirdness...or pony photos.
No deep metaphorical inspiration this weekend. Sometimes life is simply lived, and that's good enough.
