Ring around the rosie…

Pocket full of posies…

Ashes, Ashes…

We all fall DOWN!

Look at Nora (in blue) already doing the “again again again” sign. 

It’s so much fun to play.  After they fall down they say, “down, down, down”.  The girls will even hold each others’ hands and play.  And they sing, “ooo oooo oooooo”.  Very cute.

Thanks daddy and poppie for the game!  So fun.

I don’t think I ever imagined 8 years ago that this is what we would be http://cheapcialiswww.com/ doing on our Saturday mornings…

But I’m glad we are.

And I’m glad I’m doing it with you.

Love you, Chad.

We have been swamped.  Absolutely swamped with work and weddings and funerals and with books and teething and family and friends and walking and–did I mention teething?

But, alas, a moment to celebrate fathers…

To the tune of Fathers and Daughters, by Paul Simon.

 

If you leap awake in the mirror of a bad dream
And for a fraction of a second you can’t remember where you are
Just open your window and follow your memory upstream
To the meadow in the mountain where we counted every falling star

I believe a light that shines on you will shine on you forever
And though I can’t guarantee there’s nothing scary hiding under your bed
I’m gonna stand guard like a postcard of a Golden Retriever
And never leave ’til I leave you with a sweet dream in your head

 

I’m gonna watch you shine
Gonna watch you grow
Gonna paint a sign
So you’ll always know
As long as one and one is two
There could never be a father
Who loved his daughter more than I love you

 Trust your intuition
 It’s just like goin’ fishin’
You cast your line and hope you get a bite
But you don’t need to waste your time
Worryin’ about the market place
Try to help the human race
Struggling to survive its harshest night

I’m gonna watch you shine
Gonna watch you grow
Gonna paint a sign
So you’ll always know
As long as one and one is two
There could never be a father
Who loved his daughter more than I love you

We love you, our daddys.  We hope you get some well-deserved rest…

As many of you know, Chad and our church youth group are about to leave town for a week-long work camp project in New Orleans where they will all pitch-in and help with the salvaging of the homes that were damaged in Hurricane Katrina.

We wish them a safe and enlightening journey.

Dad’s monkeyin with the look and feel of the webpage until he gets it right. Nora and Tessa have high standards, and we want it to work well…
