Mother’s Day
I think I’ll go for a swim…No, it’s cold!….C’mon, it’s totally fine.
Coming home from school – and the gang at our local transfer station.
Sign of the week — and flower of the week.

joy of heading home!

Ms O has a very beautiful dress! I am jealous of the spring you are having in Seattle. In Brussels there are chilly temperatures, cold wind and rain!

Beautiful flower of the week. We had those when I was growing up in Snohomish. Your daughter is gorgeous in her “Mother’s Day” dress. I love your son’s expression with his toes in the water!

Wonderful photo of you, the kids, and your mom. Looking at Mr. D’s face, I guess the water was a bit cold. 🥶 I’m still trying to figure out the $5.99 a gallon and the message on the Village Market sign, but I’ll get there. I know, I deserve better than $5.99, but it is what it is. 😭
