What makes a good Papa?

they played babies all afternoon
not that it took a lot of effort for their sister to talk them into it
even my baby read them books, sang to them and put them to bed
his older brother noted, "He'll make a good papa!"
then our sweet friends came over with the real thing!!!
my boy waited patiently to hold her
was thrilled to walked her around and around
(thanks for trusting your little girl with him)
and was in heaven when she fell asleep in his arms
looks like someone else will also make a good papa...

Snow! Snow!

as I was gathering eggs early this morning
the wind blew petals off of the trees all around me
at a closer inspection I realized they were not petals
but rather big fat snowflakes
the snow on the blooming trees and plants is beautiful
we stopped to enjoy it on our way out this morning
I drank my tea next to the outdoor fire, flurries all around
they say that this has happened before
I don't remember it - snow in april?

as eager as we are for it to get warm again
we can never get enough snow!

My Heros





These are my favorite SUPERHEROS!



BATMAN because he doesn't have super powers like the rest
instead he uses his ingenuity (and his money) to create super outfits, mobiles and such to help people out






ROBIN because he is loyal and darn cheeky



and SUPERGIRL because she is just too cute and... SUPER!










and there's WONDER WOMAN who is REALLY my favorite!
