We are doing our best to squeeze in as much summertime, warm weather fun as we can here in Upstate New York. Summers are truly gorgeous here -- our reward for enduring the long , bitter winter -- and this summer has been especially nice. Ella is all over the place now, and we have enjoyed being outside when we can. With a 14 month old, even a short walk to the mailbox is full of adventure -- mulch, flower petals, leaves, and gravel are all wonderful new mysteries to explore. When I can slow down long enough to just let her take her time, I find that I see the world through her eyes -- new, exciting, and fresh each day. Perhaps that is the greatest gift children give to us.
