And here we are as the earth makes another whizzing lap around the sun, zooming around, tipping this way and that way, creating our seasons. All the while I marvel at how my girls grow and change happens. What a difference a year or two can make.

| Love these girls - K(16) and C(13) |
This is our season for popsicles, flip-flops, mowing the lawn, pools opening, fans in bedroom windows and approaching-the-last-day-of-school excitement. It's the time of year for the girls to be surprised that last year's swimsuits and shorts no longer fit.
This past weekend Kaylyn & Cami were very helpful in the flower beds. We pulled weeds, thinned perennials, planted annuals and spread (heavy!) bags of mulch 'til we basically dropped. Well... at least I was ready to drop.
In the early morning quiet I take a little time to sweep our deck, check the bird feeder and water my plants while the girls get ready for the last days of school. I like to just look at my flowers, know what I mean? The change of seasons will never stop amazing me and today, I can tell, is going to be another hot, sticky one. Right now I'd rather have that over snow, but ask me again in August...
