Summer catch up.

I can’t find time to blog.
We’re busy I guess.

Busy:
picking berries and making jam
making birthday cakes and celebrating birthdays
swimming
dodging blanket emails from people who just don’t get that I don’t share every last conviction they have
helping my son prepare for being a teacher’s helper for VBS
taking the kids to a summer class on NYS history
working
taking naps because my work schedule messes me up
swimming
having spontaneous, and planned, fellowship with people as we float around the pool
having some of that fellowship with long-time friends, and some with people we don’t know that well
watching the kids through the laundry room window as they make movies pretending to be Little House on the Prairie characters
laundry
making meals for missionaries
making meals for friends having babies
making food for friends having funerals
swimming
planning for next school year

praying… a lot — so much to pray for. My myself, for others.

Too busy to blog.  Lots of activity, not enough sleep, too many hotdogs.

Eating green crayons…

Summer is good… the sky has been clear… and we’ve been busy!
