So today was the first day of no school! I told the kids we could go somewhere special like the beach or the zoo. Sophie rallied for the zoo as the last time we were there she did not see the flamingos (imagine tears and a pushed out bottom lip here)! It turned out to be too cold this morning for the beach so off we marched to the zoo! Sophie and Natalie liked the chicken coop while Calvin had the most fun at the handwashing stations! Max brought a book and walked around reading most of the time.
I am a busy Mormon mother with three children from my first marriage and four bonus children in New York. I am a child of God. I am blessed with three wonderful extended families and many amazingly talented friends. I work full-time in a dental office and we live in a little 1940's rental just five blocks from the public library.
I adore Oregon.
I am happy. I am busy. I am loved.
I may be changed by what has happened to me, but I will not be diminished by it. Maya Angelou
"Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don’t know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishing." -Anais Nin
