... of LOVE

LOVE playgrounds at any mall – I delight to hear their joyful squeals as they skip and climb.

LOVE early mornings – I delight to watch them share and create games together.

LOVE Starbucks – I thoroughly enjoy having 2 dates for coffee, especially on a rainy day.

LOVE the freedom of childhood – My heart swells to see the carefree, life-lovin', bouts of dancing exuberance in our house and around the town.

LOVE Goldenspoon – I'm so thankful for a bounty of Costco babywipes.

LOVE my beautiful children – Looking at them I KNOW that God is the supreme Good, that God is the complete LOVE, that God's Grace Super-abounds.

Psalm 92:4

"For you make me glad by your deeds, O LORD: I sing for joy at the works of your hands."

...Halloween was happy.

Jayden Malia dons Princess garb nearly every day of the week and wears her "clip clop" high heels all around town (see pix below). So to make Halloween dress up out of the ordinary she had to wait nearly a month to wear this Belle gown which we had given her for her Birthday.

Zachary went along with the program surprisingly well and was especially fond of his fire hat. Our neighbor, Mr. Darrell, is a Fire Captain and on occasion a fire truck will be parked outside his house for which Zach can hardly contain his excitement.By 6:00 Zach was ready to hit the hay so he never saw a single trick-or-treater. On the other hand Jayden was giddy 'tll 8:15 (waaaay past bed-time) and even collected candy from 4 of our friends houses. She had to sleep with her small bag of candy to keep it safe from Zachy.
