someone mentioned to me how much they missed my writing here (hi, nancy!). looking back i realized she was right--i haven't been writing much, but telling my stories with pictures.

there have been many things i thought to write about...

* how the birds keep waking me up at 4 a.m...

* how much i want my neighbor to mow her lawn...

* how i knit and then frogged an eighth of a sweater because my gauge was wrong...

* how i think i am giving myself an ulcer from watching my son pitch--he's doing great, but that's a lot of pressure on a 16 year old (and on his mom)...

* how spring pretty much just passed us by and we're now just in full-on summer...

* how i cannot stop thinking up new projects, but can't seem to carve out an extra 4 hours of each day to accomplish them...

* when we had our family portraits done it reminded me how much i dreamed of being a model when i was a young teen...and then my friends dawn and terry made that dream a reality...



more words and pictures soon...i promise, nancy!
