Sweden @ 7 Mo.(plus a little)

I have a lot more 7 Mo. pictures but I'll start with this one.

Anticipation

"My Birthday then Christmas!" she knows the order in which her December will progress.

It's so hard not to touch the tree and ornaments even when you're (almost) three. I tell her the lights and sparkly ornaments  will shine in her eyes if she only looks. I had to prove it!

Blessed

Although we were a little smaller group this year our house was still so full of good things; the laughter of children, scrumptious food, an after dinner walk in the gorgeous sunshine, conversation, games and Pie!

Thank a Veteran

My Dad, a WWII veteran has now passed away. The veterans from that war are dying so rapidly. If you know any, honor them, get their stories, say thank you. Our world today would be a very different place if America had not helped win that war. Much precious USA blood was spilled into European dirt. There were Children who lost fathers, mothers who lost sons (sometimes multiple) , wives who lost husbands.
Thank a veteran. Today.

Ladybugs

We are not exactly on the thoroughfare of trick-or-treaters but we did have a duet of ladybugs come over last night. So I'll sneak these pictures in before I start in on the 6mo. photo shoot.
