Blogging is King

I'm back.  Why so long away?  I have no good answer.  We've been back from Wisconsin for over a month now, I just haven't blogged.  Just haven't.

My mother did stay for an extra weeks visit after she helped me drive the children home.
It was super, super hot weather wise.
We had two solid weeks of swim classes for Master Hugo.
The girls have been busy bees, two - or should I say, four steps - ahead of me at all times!
We've missed Papa during this busy, busy work summer of his.  A lot.

I suppose I'll back date some posts to fill in the gap.  But know this, I am back. 

Sounds of Home

The girls were playing happily with Carly in the sandbox when my Dad began to mow the lawn.  Marlo jumped up looking toward the sound she knew so well, and began waving and waving as she called out, "Papa, Papa, Papa!"  Both girls were surprised and bewildered to see my Father ride past them on the mower.  Sounds of home.

My sister Millie is giving me mini lessons on using my new camera, today I shot in "m".  It was exciting!  And hard.
