Slurping Life

Simple Things

 

I am beginning to learn that it is the sweet, simple things of life which are the real ones after all.

Dear Football

Dear Football,

Thank you for making a cameo appearance in my photo of a weed.

You remind me of the boys...

of moments

wacky and laughy,

achy and breaky,

squishy and lovey,

spent with my sons.

Seriously football, thank you.

Sincerely,

Melody

SOOC Saturday - A Special Weekend

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.

Three is the Loveliest Number

a day visit for which

Lee earned the privilege of leaving the residential campus

together as a family again...if for only a day

so much progress seen

so much hope grows

so much happiness in seeing three heads instead of two

 and then

leaving him there, again, was the hardest

harder than the day we admitted him almost six months ago

can you understand that?

still

he's going to make it

his mom just knows

he will
